Summary

In the Linux kernel's dpaa2-switch driver, after receiving an invalid if_id in the IRQ handler, the interrupt status is not cleared, leading to an interrupt storm.

Risk Assessment

An interrupt storm can cause significant CPU load, leading to system performance degradation or hang.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that clears the interrupt status even after detecting an invalid if_id to prevent interrupt storms.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dpaa2-switch: Fix interrupt storm after receiving bad if_id in IRQ handler Commit 31a7a0bbeb00 ("dpaa2-switch: add bounds check for if_id in IRQ handler") introduces a range check for if_id to avoid an out-of-bounds access. If an out-of-bounds if_id is detected, the interrupt status is not cleared. This may result in an interrupt storm. Clear the interrupt status after detecting an out-of-bounds if_id to avoid the problem. Found by an experimental AI code review agent at Google.
