{"id":"AZL-83654","summary":"CVE-2026-31590 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.137.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nKVM: SEV: Drop WARN on large size for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION\n\nDrop the WARN in sev_pin_memory() on npages overflowing an int, as the\nWARN is comically trivially to trigger from userspace, e.g. by doing:\n\n  struct kvm_enc_region range = {\n          .addr = 0,\n          .size = -1ul,\n  };\n\n  __vm_ioctl(vm, KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION, &range);\n\nNote, the checks in sev_mem_enc_register_region() that presumably exist to\nverify the incoming address+size are completely worthless, as both \"addr\"\nand \"size\" are u64s and SEV is 64-bit only, i.e. they _can't_ be greater\nthan ULONG_MAX.  That wart will be cleaned up in the near future.\n\n\tif (range-\u003eaddr \u003e ULONG_MAX || range-\u003esize \u003e ULONG_MAX)\n\t\treturn -EINVAL;\n\nOpportunistically add a comment to explain why the code calculates the\nnumber of pages the \"hard\" way, e.g. instead of just shifting @ulen.","modified":"2026-08-28T17:47:52.060527627Z","published":"2026-04-24T15:16:36Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-31590"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-31590"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.137.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-83654.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
