CVE-2026-89912 | BDVDB-2026-375192 Detail
LinuxLinux
Description#
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: arm64: vgic-its: Don't dereference a NULL collection on ITT save MAPC with V=0 drops ite->collection but leaves the ITE on the device's ITT list, and vgic_its_save_ite() dereferences it unconditionally. A guest that issues MAPD, MAPTI and then MAPC(V=0) therefore oopses the host when the VMM issues KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_SAVE_TABLES to migrate it. That sequence is UNPREDICTABLE per the architecture, but KVM already handles the resulting state in the translate, MOVI and DISCARD paths. Save a zeroed entry, which vgic_its_restore_ite() reads back as invalid. Skipping the ITE instead would leave the ITT slot holding whatever is in guest memory, and restore rejects an entry naming a collection the restored collection table does not have.
Impact#
Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact none, integrity impact none, availability impact high. Attack vector: local.
Weaknesses#
No weakness recorded in the source data.
