Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-89907)

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

CVSSv4: 8.5 [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]


The vulnerability allows a local user to corrupt kernel memory.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the LoongArch KVM pch_msi_set_irq() function when processing user-supplied MSI data. A local user can supply an MSI data value of 256 or greater through KVM MSI routing or signaling interfaces to corrupt kernel memory.

The DMSINTC path is unaffected.
