In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/vt-d: debugfs: Fix legacy mode page table dump logic In legacy mode, SSPTPTR is ignored if TT is not 00b or 01b. SSPTPTR maybe uninitialized or zero in that case and may cause oops like: Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xf00087d3f000f000: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI CPU: 2 UID: 0 PID: 786 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.16.0 #191 PREEMPT(voluntary) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.17.0-5.fc42 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:pgtable_walk_level+0x98/0x150 RSP: 0018:ffffc90000f279c0 EFLAGS:
