Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's drm/amdkfd component. A local user could provide a specially crafted ID during the Checkpoint/Restore in Userspace (CRIU) restore process. If this restored ID is larger than the maximum integer value (INT_MAX), it can trigger a kernel warning. This warning may lead to a system panic or reboot, resulting in a denial of service.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-09-04 17:16:00 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdkfd: Validate CRIU-restored IDs before idr_alloc

The KFD CRIU restore flow restores previously saved object IDs from
userspace.

For event restore:

  kfd_criu_restore_event()
      -> create_signal_event() / create_other_event()
          -> allocate_event_notification_slot()
              -> idr_alloc(..., *restore_id, *restore_id + 1, ...)

For BO restore:

  criu_restore_memory_of_gpu()
      -> idr_alloc(..., bo_priv->idr_handle, ...)

In both cases, the restored ID comes from userspace-provided CRIU data.

idr_alloc() expects the ID range values to fit within signed int
limits. If a restored ID is larger than INT_MAX, it can trigger a WARN
in the IDR layer.

A kernel WARN is undesirable because it prints a warning trace and may
cause a panic or reboot on systems with panic_on_warn enabled.

Smatch reported these paths as allowing unchecked userspace values to
reach idr_alloc().

Add INT_MAX validation before using restored IDs in:

- kfd_criu_restore_event()
- criu_restore_memory_of_gpu()

If the restored ID is invalid, return -EINVAL.

This prevents invalid restore data from reaching the IDR layer and
avoids WARN-triggering paths, while keeping valid restore behavior
unchanged.
