Naming products and services – and also their many different functions and features – in the infosec domain is, in a word, tricky. Why? Complexity… Cybersecurity: its not a one-dimensional object like, say, a boat. There are different sized boats, but besides things like that, a boat is mostly always a boat. But show more ...

An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or to expose sensitive information. This issue only show more ...
In the Linux Mali driver, when building with MALI_USE_CSF, the VFS read handler of the main Mali file descriptor (kbase_read()) never looks at its "count" parameter. This means that a simple userspace program that sets up a Mali file descriptor, then calls read(mali_fd, buf, 1), will see read() returning a higher length than requested, and out-of-bounds data in the userspace buffer will be clobbered.
The Mali driver frees GPU page tables before removing the higher-level PTEs pointing to those page tables (and, therefore, also before issuing the required flushes). This means a racing memory write instruction on the GPU can write to an attacker-controlled physical address.
Arm Mali has an issue where a driver exposes physical addresses to unprivileged userspace.
On Mali devices without the new CSF interface, IMPORTED_USER_BUF is released without flushing host-side VMAs, leading to a page use-after-free vulnerability.
