Astra Linux – vulnerability in linux-6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: SVM: Update x2APIC MSR intercepts if AVIC is inhibited while L2 is active Always update x2APIC MSR intercepts for L1 when AVIC is deactivated, even if L2 is active and KVM is using a separate MSR bitmap to run L2. If AVIC is...

Astra Linux – vulnerability in linux-6.1, linux-6.12

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: SVM: Set/clear CR8 write interception when AVIC is deactivated Explicitly set/clear CR8 write interception when AVIC is deactivated to fix a bug where KVM leaves the interception enabled after AVIC is activated. For example,...

kernel: KVM: SVM: Update x2APIC MSR intercepts if AVIC is inhibited while L2 is active

A flaw was found in KVM Kernel-based Virtual Machine. When the Advanced Virtual Interrupt Controller AVIC is inhibited while a nested guest L2 is active, KVM fails to properly update x2APIC MSR intercepts for the primary guest L1. This allows the L1 guest to read the host's APIC state, send...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/amd: Do not reallocate GA log buffers on resume Commit c5e1a1eb9279 "iommu/amd: Simplify and Consolidate Virtual APIC AVIC Enablement" moved the GA log allocation from iommuinitpci to enableiommusvapic, which is called on...

CVE-2026-98003 iommu/amd: Do not reallocate GA log buffers on resume

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/amd: Do not reallocate GA log buffers on resume Commit c5e1a1eb9279 "iommu/amd: Simplify and Consolidate Virtual APIC AVIC Enablement" moved the GA log allocation from iommuinitpci to enableiommusvapic, which is called on...

CVE-2026-98003

The Linux kernel contains a vulnerability in the iommu/amd component where GA log buffers are reallocated during every resume operation. The root cause is that the iommu_init_ga_log() function unconditionally assigns pointers to iommu->ga_log and iommu->ga_log_tail, causing a memory leak of...
