    CVE-2026-46209 Linux DRM/GEM Buffer Bug: Rounding Fix Prevents GPU OOB Access

    CVE-2026-46209 is a Linux kernel graphics vulnerability published by NVD on May 28, 2026, after kernel.org reported a DRM/GEM framebuffer validation bug that can let an undersized graphics buffer pass checks and later be accessed out of bounds by the GPU. The bug is not in some glamorous remote...
