LIN1023-6462 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2024-36953

Created: May 30, 2024    Updated: Jun 4, 2024
Resolved Date: May 30, 2024
Found In Version: 10.23.30.1
Fix Version: 10.23.30.11
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 23
Component/s: Kernel

Description

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

KVM: arm64: vgic-v2: Check for non-NULL vCPU in vgic_v2_parse_attr()

vgic_v2_parse_attr() is responsible for finding the vCPU that matches
the user-provided CPUID, which (of course) may not be valid. If the ID
is invalid, kvm_get_vcpu_by_id() returns NULL, which isn't handled
gracefully.

Similar to the GICv3 uaccess flow, check that kvm_get_vcpu_by_id()
actually returns something and fail the ioctl if not.
