CVE-2024-36884: kernel: iommu/arm-smmu: Use the correct type in nvidia_smmu_context_fault()
Component: kernel
Severity: Moderate
CWE: CWE-476 (NULL Pointer Dereference)
CVSS v3: 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
Public date: 2024-05-30T00:00:00+00:00

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iommu/arm-smmu: Use the correct type in nvidia_smmu_context_fault()

This was missed because of the function pointer indirection.

nvidia_smmu_context_fault() is also installed as a irq function, and the
'void *' was changed to a struct arm_smmu_domain. Since the iommu_domain
is embedded at a non-zero offset this causes nvidia_smmu_context_fault()
to miscompute the offset. Fixup the types.
