Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nouveau: lock the client object tree. It appears the client object tree has no locking unless I've missed something else. Fix races around adding/removing client objects, mostly vram bar mappings. 4562.099306] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x6677ed422bceb80c: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI [ 4562.099314] CPU: 2 PID: 23171 Comm: deqp-vk Not tainted 6.8.0-rc6+ #27 [ 4562.099324] Hardware name: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
