In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: Fix the descriptor address in __kvm_at_swap_desc()
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, not hva + offset8. ;-)
Fix it.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) component. Specifically, in the ARM64 architecture, an incorrect calculation of the descriptor address in the __kvm_at_swap_desc() function could lead to memory corruption. This vulnerability may allow an attacker to cause system instability or affect the integrity of virtual machines.
