That is a local /dev/kvm and guest MSI path, not a network or physical protocol handler.\nAC:L - A kvm-group VMM can create a MSGINT vCPU, queue INT_AVEC via KVM_INTERRUPT or irqfd MSI, then KVM_RUN or GET_ONE_REG ESTAT; any zero vector_map word leaves the matching stack slot uninitialized and typically nonzero. A guest retriggers the same inject on ordinary virtio/MSI I/O with no race.\nPR:L - kvm_dev_ioctl_create_vm() has no capable() check, so kvm-group (or equivalent) access is enough to create dmsintc, enable CPUCFG MSGINT, and inject AVEC. A LoongArch KVM tenant can also cause irqfd MSI injection and read guest ISR CSRs, which is Low privilege relative to the hypervisor, not init-namespace root.\nUI:N - The attacker issues KVM ioctls or guest device I/O themselves; no separate victim action such as mounting a filesystem or opening a file is required.\nS:C - dmsintc_inject_irq() writes host kernel stack contents into hardware guest ISR CSRs (LOONGARCH_CSR_ISR0-3) that the guest can read with csrrd and that the VMM can read after vcpu_put. That discloses hypervisor memory across the KVM guest-to-host boundary.\nC:H - Up to four uninitialized unsigned long stack slots are OR'd into guest-visible ISR registers on every AVEC injection. Repeated MSI or KVM_RUN samples resample kernel stack including pointers, matching CNA stack-leak scoring for KASLR defeat.\nI:L - The same uninitialized words are OR'd into guest ISR0-3, setting extra AVEC pending bits the VMM did not inject. That is limited corruption of guest interrupt-controller state, not an arbitrary host write or control-flow hijack.\nA:N - The uninitialized values are consumed only as ISR bitmasks via gcsr_write; they are not used as pointers and do not oops, panic, hang, or otherwise deny host service." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "arch/loongarch/kvm/intc/dmsintc.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "03de5eecb0f0f68f29086bc0075c7fd597bf4e4a", "lessThan": "f56060b0e10fa5633fac1dc243a25da3a5cdafb1", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "03de5eecb0f0f68f29086bc0075c7fd597bf4e4a", "lessThan": "81aa3a58b542ed88819115c80a17acd86eacb89d", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "arch/loongarch/kvm/intc/dmsintc.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "7.1", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "7.1", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2.5", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.3", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "7.1", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.5" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "7.1", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f56060b0e10fa5633fac1dc243a25da3a5cdafb1" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/81aa3a58b542ed88819115c80a17acd86eacb89d" } ], "title": "LoongArch: KVM: Fix uninitialized stack variable issue with dmsintc", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
