Summary

In the Linux kernel IOMMU SVA subsystem, a bug in iommu_sva_unbind_device() caused a use-after-free. After iommu_domain_free() freed the mm structure, accessing domain->mm->iommu_mm resulted in a crash.

Risk Assessment

The risk is a system crash during SVA device unbinding, potentially disrupting services relying on IOMMU.

Recommendation

Update the Linux kernel to a version that moves the access to domain->mm->iommu_mm before the call to iommu_domain_free().

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/sva: Fix crash in iommu_sva_unbind_device() domain->mm->iommu_mm can be freed by iommu_domain_free(): iommu_domain_free() mmdrop() __mmdrop() mm_pasid_drop() After iommu_domain_free() returns, accessing domain->mm->iommu_mm may dereference a freed mm structure, leading to a crash. Fix this by moving the code that accesses domain->mm->iommu_mm to before the call to iommu_domain_free().
