CVE-2023-54060
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommufd: Set end correctly when doing batch carry
Even though the test suite covers this it somehow became obscured that this wasn't working.
The test iommufd_ioas.mock_domain.access_domain_destory would blow up rarely.
end should be set to 1 because this just pushed an item, the carry, to the pfns list.
Sometimes the test would blow up with:
