{"id":"AZL-104286","summary":"CVE-2026-97900 affecting package kernel 6.6.157.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/drm_exec: fix up contended obj when num_objects is 0\n\ndrm_exec_prepare_array() silently returns success without calling\ndrm_exec_lock_contended() when num_objects is zero. This breaks the\ninvariant upheld by drm_exec_lock_obj(), where every entry point into\nthe locking sequence must first attempt to lock any previously\ncontended object before proceeding.\n\nDrivers that chain multiple drm_exec_prepare_array() calls per\ndrm_exec_until_all_locked() iteration (e.g. amdgpu's userq signal/wait\nioctls, which prepare separate read and write BO arrays) can pass an\nempty array for one of the two calls. If contention is hit while\npreparing the non-empty array, exec-\u003econtended is set and the loop\nretries; on retry, the empty-array call preceding it is a no-op that\nnever clears exec-\u003econtended, so drm_exec_retry_on_contention()\nimmediately jumps back to the top of the loop without ever reaching\nthe call that would resolve the contention. This spins forever.\n\nFix it by having drm_exec_prepare_array() call drm_exec_lock_contended()\ndirectly when num_objects is zero, so a pending contended object dont\nloop infinitely.","modified":"2026-09-26T14:16:12.184814112Z","published":"2026-09-25T11:17:16Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-97900"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-97900"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.157.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-104286.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
