CVE-2026-52968: Linux KVM on Azure/GCP/Nvidia/Oracle/Raspi may overrun memory
CVE-2026-52968 · published 4 months ago
Summary
A bug in the Linux kernel’s KVM component could write past the end of a data table on certain cloud and hardware images, potentially causing crashes or enabling malicious code execution. The error occurs when the system handles specific virtual devices and the fix removes an incorrect size calculation. Install the latest kernel updates for the listed Linux images as soon as possible to apply the correction.

Original advisory text
CVE-2026-52968 in linux - Patched by Root
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: pci: fix GAIT table indexing due to double-scaling pointer arithmetic kvm_s390_pci_aif_enable(), kvm_s390_pci_aif_disable(), and aen_host_forward() index the GAIT by manually multiplying the index with sizeof(struct zpci_gaite). Since aift->gait is already a struct zpci_gaite pointer, this double-scales the offset, accessing element aisb*16 instead of aisb. This causes out-of-bounds accesses when aisb >= 32 (with ZPCI_NR_DEVICES=512) Fix by removing the erroneous sizeof multiplication.
