CVE-2026-49745
GPU DDK - Unvalidated sHWPerfCtlDMABuf GPU-VA, DMA-write into FW privdata via MMU ctx 0
CVE-2026-49745 is a high vulnerability (CVSS 7.8) in Imaginationtech Ddk, published July 24, 2026. No source lists public exploit code. EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.16%, the 5th percentile. Fixed in :unknown: SoCVersion:2026-09-05.
Kernel software installed and running inside a Guest VM may post improper commands to the GPU Firmware to trigger a write of data outside the Guest's virtualised GPU memory.
Software installed and run under a Guest VM can send commands to the GPU which result in out of bounds memory accesses. These can be used to escalate privileges.
