Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
An issue exists in the KVM s390 PCI implementation regarding the validation of the All-Interrupt Bit Vector (AIBV) and the All-Interrupt Summary Bit (AISB) before pinning guest pages. The AIBV size is determined by the
NOI and AIBVO variables; if this size exceeds a single page boundary, the guest AIBV cannot be safely pinned. Additionally, the architecture requires doubleword alignment for the summary bit address, meaning the AISB address must be 8-byte aligned. Because the AISBO can address up to 64 bits, the AISB size is limited to 8 bytes to ensure it does not exceed a single page boundary.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
