  "details" : [ "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\ndrm/i915: fix race condition UAF in i915_perf_add_config_ioctl\nUserspace can guess the id value and try to race oa_config object creation\nwith config remove, resulting in a use-after-free if we dereference the\nobject after unlocking the metrics_lock.  For that reason, unlocking the\nmetrics_lock must be done after we are done dereferencing the object.\n[tursulin: Manually added stable tag.]\n(cherry picked from commit 49f6f6483b652108bcb73accd0204a464b922395)", "A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Intel i915 GPU driver's performance monitoring subsystem. A race condition between adding and removing OA configurations allows dereferencing a freed object." ],
  "statement" : "Exploitation requires Intel GPU hardware and the ability to issue i915 perf ioctls, which typically needs render node access. The race window is narrow, making reliable exploitation difficult.",
