Summary

In the Linux kernel, a vulnerability was found in the IOMMU driver for RISC-V architecture on the invalidation path. When gather->end reaches ULONG_MAX, an overflow causes an infinite loop. Additionally, incorrect length calculation (moving +1 to the other side of <) may lead to operational errors.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability could cause system hangs (infinite loop) or incorrect IOMMU behavior, potentially leading to service disruptions in virtualized environments or systems with advanced memory management.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Linux kernel to a version containing the fix that removes overflows on the invalidation path in the iommu/riscv driver. Monitor security advisories from your Linux distribution.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/riscv: Remove overflows on the invalidation path Since RISC-V supports a sign extended page table it should support a gather->end of ULONG_MAX, but if this happens it will infinite loop because of the overflow. Also avoid overflow computing the length by moving the +1 to the other side of the <
