Summary

In the Linux kernel, a vulnerability was found in the iommupt subsystem due to missing check for PAGE_SIZE in the pgsize_bitmap. The driver may drop PAGE_SIZE from the bitmap, which is technically allowed but violates design assumptions and may cause issues with the DMA API.

Risk Assessment

The risk involves potential bypass of the fast path in IOMMU operations, leading to incorrect memory mapping and possible system crashes or memory isolation breaches.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Linux kernel to a version containing the fix (commit removing PT_WARN_ON and adding a check in the if branch). Monitor official security advisories from your Linux distribution.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommupt: Check for missing PAGE_SIZE in the pgsize_bitmap Sashiko pointed out that the driver could drop PAGE_SIZE from the pgsize_bitmap. That is technically allowed but nothing does it, and such an iommu_domain would not be used with the DMA API today. Still, it is against the design and it is trivial to fix up. Lift the PT_WARN_ON to the if branch and just skip the fast path.
