CVE-2026-98468CVE-2026-98468

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: arm64: Fix spurious warning for benign stage 2 teardown race kvmtool was used to establish an L1 guest with 8 CPUs and 8 GiB of RAM, an L2 guest with 4 CPUs and 4 GiB of RAM and an L3 guest with 2 CPUs and 2 GiB of RAM, all of which was then exited. Under memory pressure in the L0 host warnings were observed due to migration triggered by compaction: WARNING: arch/arm64/kvm/mmu.c:336 at __unmap_stage2_range+0x64/0x80, CPU#5: kcompactd0/66 Which was, in turn, triggered by an MMU notifier for the host invalidation: mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() -> ... -> kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() -> kvm_mmu_unmap_gfn_range() -> kvm_unmap_gfn_range() -> kvm_nested_s2_unmap() -> kvm_stage2_unmap_range() -> __unmap_stage2_range() -> stage2_apply_range() <- -EINVAL, triggering a WARN_ON() Racing with L0's teardown of stage 2 page tables
