Overview

CVE-2026-80870 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 4, 2026.

Technical description

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().

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-80870?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-80870 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
