| Subject: CVE-2025-37846: arm64: mops: Do not dereference src reg for a set operation |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| arm64: mops: Do not dereference src reg for a set operation |
| |
| The source register is not used for SET* and reading it can result in |
| a UBSAN out-of-bounds array access error, specifically when the MOPS |
| exception is taken from a SET* sequence with XZR (reg 31) as the |
| source. Architecturally this is the only case where a src/dst/size |
| field in the ESR can be reported as 31. |
| |
| Prior to 2de451a329cf662b the code in do_el0_mops() was benign as the |
| use of pt_regs_read_reg() prevented the out-of-bounds access. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-37846 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: |
