In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nouveau/gem: reserve the bo in the info ioctl around the vma lookup

In the non-uvmm path, there could be a race between the info lookup
finding the vma, and the gem close path closing the vma leading
to a use-after-free.

Spotted with the help of Opus 4.6.
