Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-64254)

Summary

Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-64254). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

NTB: epf: Avoid pci_iounmap() with offset when PEER_SPAD and CONFIG share BAR

When BAR_PEER_SPAD and BAR_CONFIG share one PCI BAR, the module teardown
path ends up calling pci_iounmap() on the same iomem with some offset,
which is unnecessary and triggers a kernel warning like the following:

Trying to vunmap() nonexistent vm area (0000000069a5ffe8)
WARNING: mm/vmalloc.c:3470 at vunmap+0x58/0x68, CPU#5: modprobe/2937
[...]

[...]

Fix it by unmapping only when PEER_SPAD and CONFIG use difference bars.
