Summary

In the Linux kernel, the drm/panthor driver fails to flush shmem writes before mapping buffers as CPU-uncached. This may leave dirty cache lines, leading to potential data leaks or buffer corruption.

Risk Assessment

The organization risks confidential data leakage and accidental buffer corruption, affecting system stability and information security.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Linux kernel to a version containing the fix for CVE-2025-40276.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/panthor: Flush shmem writes before mapping buffers CPU-uncached The shmem layer zeroes out the new pages using cached mappings, and if we don't CPU-flush we might leave dirty cachelines behind, leading to potential data leaks and/or asynchronous buffer corruption when dirty cachelines are evicted.
