CVE-2026-74573
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/arm-smmu-v3-iommufd: Require exactly one Stream ID for a vDEVICE
arm_vsmmu_vsid_to_sid() maps a guest's vSID to a single physical Stream ID taken from master->streams[0], assuming a device has exactly one stream. A device with several streams gets only its first one mapped, so a guest vSID invalidation cannot reach the others' ATC and IOTLB entries; a device with none makes master->streams a ZERO_SIZE_PTR, read out of bounds.
Add an arm_vsmmu_vdevice_init() op to reject the vDEVICE with -EOPNOTSUPP when master->num_streams is not one, rather than mapping it silently.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.3
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.19%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 8
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
