SUSE CVE-2026-31553

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: arm64: Fix the descriptor address in kvmatswapdesc Using "u64 user hva + offset" to get the virtual addresses of S1/S2 descriptors looks really wrong, if offset is not zero. What we want to get for swapping is hva + offset,...

CVE-2026-31553

CVE-2026-31553 affects the Linux kernel KVM on arm64. The issue stems from computing descriptor addresses in __kvm_at_swap_desc() using (u64 __user )hva + offset, which miscomputes when offset ≠ 0, effectively performing offset 8. The correction is to use hva + offset to obtain the correct S1/S2 ...
