Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Fix missing runtime PM reference in ccs_mode_store ccs_mode_store() calls xe_gt_reset() which internally invokes xe_pm_runtime_get_noresume(). That function requires the caller to already hold an outer runtime PM reference and warns if none is held: [46.891177] xe 0000:03:00.0: [drm] Missing outer runtime PM protection [46.891178] WARNING: drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_pm.c:885 at xe_pm_runtime_get_noresume+0x8b/0xc0 Fix this by protecting xe_gt_reset() with the scope-based guard(xe_pm_runtime)(xe), which is the preferred form when the reference lifetime matches a single scope. v2: - Use scope-based guard(xe_pm_runtime)(xe) (Shuicheng) - Update commit message accordingly (cherry picked from commit 7937ea733f79b3f25e802a0c8360bf7423856f36)

Recommended fix High confidence

Linux Kernel 6.19.10 or later, or 7.0+

  1. Upgrade Linux kernel to version 6.19.10 or later, or to version 7.0 or later
  2. Reboot the system to load the new kernel
  3. Verify the fix by checking that the runtime PM warning no longer appears in kernel logs when using ccs_mode_store
Caveat Kernel upgrade may require system reboot and could have compatibility implications with custom drivers or modules
