zlib heap buffer overflow via gz_vacate in CVE-2026-85091

๐Ÿ•ต๏ธ RESEARCH & DEEP DIVES

  • CVE-2026-45200: Double free in Imagination Graphics DDK _FreeOSPages affects driver versions 24.2-26.1
    Imagination Technologies disclosed CVE-2026-45200, a double free in the Graphics DDK kernel driver's _FreeOSPages caused by incorrect allocation flags.

    • Affects Imagination Technologies Graphics DDK versions 24.2 RTM2, 25.1 RTM2, and 26.1 RTM1; 1.18, 23.2, and 26.1 RTM2 are unaffected
    • A non-privileged local user can trigger a double free and kernel heap corruption via improper GPU driver IOCTL calls
    • The bug stems from _EncodeAllocationFlags setting an incorrect allocation flag, so a crafted flag combination on the allocation interface causes _FreeOSPages to free the allocation twice
    • Tracked as CWE-416 (Use After Free), assigned by Imagination Technologies, published 2026-09-04
