{"id":"AZL-88509","summary":"CVE-2026-46014 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nKVM: SVM: Add missing save/restore handling of LBR MSRs\n\nMSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR and LBR MSRs are currently not enumerated by\nKVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST, and LBR MSRs cannot be set with KVM_SET_MSRS. So\nsave/restore is completely broken.\n\nFix it by adding the MSRs to msrs_to_save_base, and allowing writes to\nLBR MSRs from userspace only (as they are read-only MSRs) if LBR\nvirtualization is enabled.  Additionally, to correctly restore L1's LBRs\nwhile L2 is running, make sure the LBRs are copied from the captured\nVMCB01 save area in svm_copy_vmrun_state().\n\nNote, for VMX, this also fixes a flaw where MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR isn't\nreported as an MSR to save/restore.\n\nNote #2, over-reporting MSR_IA32_LASTxxx on Intel is ok, as KVM already\nhandles unsupported reads and writes thanks to commit b5e2fec0ebc3 (\"KVM:\nIgnore DEBUGCTL MSRs with no effect\") (kvm_do_msr_access() will morph the\nunsupported userspace write into a nop).\n\n[sean: guard with lbrv checks, massage changelog]","modified":"2026-09-05T05:27:51Z","published":"2026-05-27T14:17:19Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-46014"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-46014"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-88509.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
