CVE-2026-52968CVE-2026-52968
linux / linux_kernel
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: s390: pci: fix GAIT table indexing due to double-scaling pointer arithmetic
kvm_s390_pci_aif_enable(), kvm_s390_pci_aif_disable(), and
aen_host_forward() index the GAIT by manually multiplying the index
with sizeof(struct zpci_gaite).
Since aift->gait is already a struct zpci_gaite pointer, this
double-scales the offset, accessing element aisb*16 instead of aisb.
This causes out-of-bounds accesses when aisb >= 32 (with
ZPCI_NR_DEVICES=512)
Fix by removing the erroneous sizeof multiplication.
