- 9.1 CRITICAL — CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: iaa - unmap dst before software fallback on decompress
On a hardware analytics error, decompress retries through the software
fallback, which writes req->dst with the CPU while it is still mapped
DMA_FROM_DEVICE. With SWIOTLB active the later dma_unmap_sg() copies the
stale bounce buffer over req->dst, corrupting the result.
Unmap before the fallback runs. The async path unmaps inline; the sync
path signals the retry with -EAGAIN so iaa_comp_adecompress() runs the
fallback after unmapping.
