Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description An issue exists in the arm64 architecture regarding the Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) store-only tag check mode. When a user opts into this mode, the SCTLR EL1.TCSO0 bit is set. Because this bit is not included in the SCTLR USER MASK, it is not cleared during a context switch, causing the setting to leak into another task.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
