CVE-2026-45979 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: clean up the amdgpu_cs_parser_bos In low memory conditions, kmalloc can fail. In such conditions unlock the mutex for a clean exit. We do not need to amdgpu_bo_list_put as it's been handled in the amdgpu_cs_parser_fini.. EPSS estimates a 0.11% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
