Last modified

CVE-2026-43395 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe/sync: Cleanup partially initialized sync on parse failure xe_sync_entry_parse() can allocate references (syncobj, fence, chain fence, or user fence) before hitting a later failure path. Several of those paths returned directly, leaving partially initialized state and leaking refs. Route these error paths through a common free_sync label and call xe_sync_entry_cleanup(sync) before returning the error. (cherry picked from commit f939bdd9207a5d1fc55cced5459858480686ce22). EPSS estimates a 0.12% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
