About this tag
The qualcomm adreno tag covers technical reporting on Qualcomm Adreno GPU issues in the Linux kernel, with recent posts focused on the A6xx series and the drm/msm driver. Topics include CVE-2026-64154, a reference leak during GPU initialization error handling, and CVE-2026-53377, which affected GPU recovery after a hang and could leave hardware stuck until later graphics work timed out. Coverage also identifies fixes in Linux 6.18.32, 7.0.9, and mainline 7.1. These entries distinguish Linux kernel issues from Windows graphics-driver vulnerabilities and provide context for readers using Snapdragon and Adreno hardware across different operating systems.
