Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-90082)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-90082). 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:
net: mana: Cap MSI-X vectors to the device MSI-X table size
mana_gd_query_max_resources() sizes gc->num_msix_usable from resp.max_msix
and the CPU count, but never from the device MSI-X table. On a 1792 vCPU
M-series VM that yields 1793 while the table has 1024 entries, and
mana_gd_setup_remaining_irqs() then walks indices 1..1792, running off the
end of the region mapped by msix_map_region():
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ff8e347f8b99800c
RIP: 0010:msix_prepare_msi_desc+0x7a/0x90
RAX: 0000000000004000 RBX: ff4330cb164ea780 RCX: ff8e347f8b998000
Call Trace:
__msi_domain_alloc_irqs+0x13a/0x440
msi_domain_alloc_irq_at+0x149/0x1b0
mana_gd_setup+0x351/0x890
mana_gd_probe+0x274/0x390
RAX is index 1024 * PCI_MSIX_ENTRY_SIZE, one entry past the table.
msi_insert_desc() does range check the index, but only against the MSI
domain hwsize, which matches the table only for devices on an MSI parent
domain. With a global PCI/MSI domain hwsize is MSI_XA_DOMAIN_SIZE, so
nothing bounds the request.
Cap num_msix_usable with pci_msix_vec_count().
