kernel: KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due to unexpected GFN

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM Kernel-based Virtual Machine x86 shadow paging mechanism. This use-after-free vulnerability arises from incorrect handling of Guest Frame Numbers GFNs when guest page tables are modified. A local attacker with control over a guest virtual machine could...

Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-52969

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available. - KVM: Reject wrapped offset in kvmresetdirtygfn kvmresetdirtygfn guards the gfn range with if !memslot || offset + flsmask = memslot-npages return; but offset is...

EUVD-2026-38837

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: Reject wrapped offset in kvmresetdirtygfn kvmresetdirtygfn guards the gfn range with if !memslot || offset + flsmask = memslot-npages return; but offset is u64 and the addition is unchecked. The check can be silently bypasse...

CVE-2026-52969

CVE-2026-52969 affects the Linux kernel KVM component. The vulnerability stems from an unchecked u64 addition in kvm_reset_dirty_gfn(), where the guard if (!memslot || (offset + __fls(mask)) >= memslot->npages) can be bypassed due to offset being 64‑bit. This can allow an out-of-bounds load...
