Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper locking (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-10263)

CWE-ID: CWE-667 - Improper Locking

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information, modify data, or cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper memory synchronization in broadcast TLBI completion in the arm64 TLB invalidation handling when performing broadcast TLB invalidation on affected Arm CPUs. A local user can trigger affected memory access patterns to disclose sensitive information, modify data, or cause a denial of service.

The issue affects completion of memory accesses translated by an invalidated TLB entry, while TLB entries themselves are still invalidated correctly.
