CVE-2026-72277
Zusammenfassung
von MITRE • 15.08.2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: nv: Inject SEA if guest VNCR isn't normal memory
When constructing an L1 VNCR mapping, KVM unconditionally uses cacheable memory attributes, even if the underlying PFN isn't memory. This gets particularly hairy if the endpoint doesn't support cacheable memory attributes, potentially throwing an SError on writeback...
While KVM does permit cacheable memory attributes on certain PFNMAP VMAs, kvm_translate_vncr() isn't currently grabbing the VMA. So do the simpler thing for now and just reject everything that isn't memory.
