CVE-2024-56617

CVE-2024-56617 affects the Linux kernel cacheinfo handling during CPU hotplug. The root cause is potential NULL dereference in last_level_cache_is_valid when cacheinfo memory was not allocated (x86 does not use early build); a patch sequence allocates cacheinfo memory during hotplug when not done...
