No network, Bluetooth, or physical path supplies the unbounded MSI data.\nAC:L - A single KVM_SIGNAL_MSI (or irqfd injection after installing a KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_MSI entry) with attacker-chosen msi.data >= 256 deterministically drives __set_bit()/__clear_bit() on isr and indexes sw_coremap[] past EIOINTC_IRQS; the attacker fully controls the irq index with no race or uncontrollable layout.\nPR:L - Exploitation requires only opening /dev/kvm and holding a VM fd (kvm-group membership on typical LoongArch hosts, or equivalent unprivileged VM access), then creating the in-kernel EIOINTC/PCH-PIC/IPI devices. Init-namespace root is not required.\nUI:N - No victim interaction is required. The attacker creates the in-kernel LoongArch irqchip devices on a VM they control and issues KVM_SIGNAL_MSI or irqfd themselves; no mount, file open, or other user action is needed.\nS:C - A KVM VM operator corrupts host kernel memory beyond the loongarch_eiointc allocation from the KVM userspace interface, crossing the VM-to-host virtualization boundary rather than confining impact to the attacker's VM security scope.\nC:H - Unbounded msi.data causes out-of-bounds __set_bit()/__clear_bit() on the 256-bit isr bitmap and an out-of-bounds sw_coremap[irq] read past the loongarch_eiointc object. Per kernel guidance such OOB memory corruption is High confidentiality impact.\nI:H - The attacker fully controls the bit index via 32-bit MSI data, yielding arbitrary-offset bit set/clear from s->isr and further OOB writes into coreisr/sw_coreisr when a valid vCPU id is observed. That out-of-bounds write is usable for host privilege escalation.\nA:H - Indexing the EIOINTC bitmaps and sw_coremap[] with irq >= 256 can immediately oops or panic the host kernel, and corrupting adjacent slab objects breaks later irq injection, denying service to the host and co-resident VMs."}]}], "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/pch_pic.c"], "versions": [{"version": "1928254c5ccb7bdffd7f0334e1ce250e9ce4de94", "lessThan": "83715a40a2d30d23719e0b25380ba82ff905195b", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "1928254c5ccb7bdffd7f0334e1ce250e9ce4de94", "lessThan": "501514d6ebd2111c353a1296f25dbe22fbd64657", "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/pch_pic.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6.13", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.13", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.5", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3-rc2", "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": "6.13", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.5"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.13", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3-rc2"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/83715a40a2d30d23719e0b25380ba82ff905195b"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/501514d6ebd2111c353a1296f25dbe22fbd64657"}], "title": "LoongArch: KVM: Validate MSI data before routing it to EIOINTC", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
