| Subject: CVE-2024-56756: nvme-pci: fix freeing of the HMB descriptor table |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| nvme-pci: fix freeing of the HMB descriptor table |
| |
| The HMB descriptor table is sized to the maximum number of descriptors |
| that could be used for a given device, but __nvme_alloc_host_mem could |
| break out of the loop earlier on memory allocation failure and end up |
| using less descriptors than planned for, which leads to an incorrect |
| size passed to dma_free_coherent. |
| |
| In practice this was not showing up because the number of descriptors |
| tends to be low and the dma coherent allocator always allocates and |
| frees at least a page. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-56756 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
