UTSA-2026-005478 advisory.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    ACPICA: Add AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag to Timer

    ACPICA commit 90310989a0790032f5a0140741ff09b545af4bc5

    According to the ACPI specification 19.6.134, no argument is required to be passed for ASL Timer
    instruction. For taking care of no argument, AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag is added to ASL Timer instruction
    opcode.

    When ASL timer instruction interpreted by ACPI interpreter, getting error. After adding
    AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag to ASL Timer instruction opcode, issue is not observed.
