In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/gic-v3-its: Restore quirk probing for ACPI-based systems
While refactoring the way the ITSs are probed, the handling of quirks
applicable to ACPI-based platforms was lost. As a result, systems such as
HIP07 lose their GICv4 functionnality, and some other may even fail to
boot, unless they are configured to boot with DT.
Move the enabling of quirks into its_probe_one(), making it common to all
firmware implementations.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Generic Interrupt Controller (irqchip/gic-v3-its) driver. During initialization on platforms using the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI), hardware-specific workaround (quirk) probing is improperly omitted. This issue can cause affected systems to lose critical interrupt functionality or fail to boot entirely, resulting in a denial of service (DoS).
Отчет
This vulnerability is evaluated as having a Low security impact because it represents an internal hardware initialization failure rather than a remotely or locally exploitable security vulnerability, requiring specific ARM64 hardware running ACPI firmware to trigger. Supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux releases are not affected, as they do not incorporate the refactored interrupt controller code that introduced the regression. On affected upstream installations, the defect is restricted to boot-time misconfiguration or failure without exposing system confidentiality or integrity.
