| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description:
The issue is related to the
iommufd access change ioas() function in the Linux kernel, which sets access->ioas to NULL during its process, potentially causing a lock to be gone in a concurrent racing context. This can lead to a general protection fault, probably for a non-canonical address. The problem is fixed by doing the same access->ioas sanity check as the iommufd access rw() and iommufd access pin pages() functions.Recommendations:
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
