{"id":"AZL-87071","summary":"CVE-2026-43497 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.141.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfbdev: udlfb: add vm_ops to dlfb_ops_mmap to prevent use-after-free\n\ndlfb_ops_mmap() uses remap_pfn_range() to map vmalloc framebuffer pages\nto userspace but sets no vm_ops on the VMA. This means the kernel cannot\ntrack active mmaps. When dlfb_realloc_framebuffer() replaces the backing\nbuffer via FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO, existing mmap PTEs are not invalidated.\nOn USB disconnect, dlfb_ops_destroy() calls vfree() on the old pages\nwhile userspace PTEs still reference them, resulting in a use-after-free:\nthe process retains read/write access to freed kernel pages.\n\nAdd vm_operations_struct with open/close callbacks that maintain an\natomic mmap_count on struct dlfb_data. In dlfb_realloc_framebuffer(),\ncheck mmap_count and return -EBUSY if the buffer is currently mapped,\npreventing buffer replacement while userspace holds stale PTEs.\n\nTested with PoC using dummy_hcd + raw_gadget USB device emulation.","modified":"2026-08-28T17:47:46.462940867Z","published":"2026-05-21T13:16:19Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-43497"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-43497"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.141.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-87071.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
