CVE-2026-43248

About vulnerability

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vhost: move vdpa group bound check to vhost_vdpa Remove duplication by consolidating these here. This reduces the posibility of a parent driver missing them. While we’re at it, fix a bug in vdpa_sim where a valid ASID can be assigned to a group equal to ngroups, causing an out of bound write. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s vhost subsystem. Specifically, a bug in the vdpa_sim component allows for an out-of-bounds write when a valid ASID (Address Space ID) is incorrectly assigned to a vDPA (virtio Data Path Acceleration) group. This could lead to memory corruption, potentially resulting in a denial of service or other system instability.
