It puts the iterated pointer, though, rather than the\nvalue returned by xa_erase().\n\nThe function is called from contexts that do not exclude one another: the\nITS command handlers hold its_lock, the GITS_CTLR write path holds\ncmd_lock, and the path that clears EnableLPIs in a redistributor's\nGICR_CTLR holds neither. Two or more of them can drain the same cache\nconcurrently, and if each one observes the same entry, erases it and then\nputs it, the single reference the cache holds on that entry is dropped\nmore than once. The entry can then be freed while an ITE still maps it.\n\nxa_erase() is atomic and returns the previous entry, so put only the entry\nthat this context actually removed.

from KVM guest MMIO traps on GICv3 ITS registers (GITS_CTLR/CWRITER command processing) and redistributor GICR_CTLR LPI-disable writes, not from any network-facing host protocol.\nAC:L - A guest controls all racing contexts by pinning vCPUs to run concurrent ITS commands, GITS_CTLR disable, and GICR_CTLR LPI-disable on the same ITS translation cache; the attacker creates and wins the race rather than depending on uncontrollable host timing.\nPR:N - No host privileges are required beyond running code in an assigned KVM guest (e.g. a cloud VM tenant on arm64); exploitation needs guest-kernel access to GIC MMIO, not host root or capabilities in the init namespace.\nUI:N - Exploitation is fully attacker-driven from within the guest VM and does not require any victim user or administrator action on the host.\nS:C - The use-after-free corrupts host-kernel heap memory (`struct vgic_irq`) from guest-controlled VGIC operations, crossing the guest-to-host virtualization security boundary with VM-escape impact.\nC:H - Premature `vgic_put_irq()` frees the LPI `vgic_irq` while an ITE still maps it, yielding a kernel heap use-after-free that can be leveraged for arbitrary host memory disclosure via subsequent IRQ structure dereferences.\nI:H - The dangling `vgic_irq` pointer allows attacker-influenced writes through IRQ state fields (`irq_lock`, `pending_latch`, `target_vcpu`, list heads), enabling heap grooming and potential host control-flow or data corruption.\nA:H - The refcount underflow frees live kernel objects still in use by the ITS, causing host kernel oops/panic or hang during subsequent LPI delivery, MSI injection, or ITS command handling."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected",

Sin embargo, libera el puntero iterado, en lugar del valor devuelto por xa_erase().\n\nLa funci\u00f3n es llamada desde contextos que no se excluyen mutuamente: los manejadores de comandos ITS mantienen its_lock, la ruta de escritura de GITS_CTLR mantiene cmd_lock, y la ruta que borra EnableLPIs en el GICR_CTLR de un redistribuidor no mantiene ninguno. Dos o m\u00e1s de ellos pueden vaciar la misma cach\u00e9 concurrentemente, y si cada uno observa la misma entrada, la borra y luego la libera, la \u00fanica referencia que la cach\u00e9 mantiene sobre esa entrada se elimina m\u00e1s de una vez. La entrada puede entonces ser liberada mientras un ITE todav\u00eda la mapea.\n\nxa_erase() es at\u00f3mica y devuelve la entrada anterior, as\u00ed que libera solo la entrada que este contexto realmente elimin\u00f3. La referencia de la cach\u00e9 se elimina entonces exactamente una vez por entrada incluso cuando las invalidaciones se ejecutan concurrentemente, y el comportamiento no cambia cuando solo se ejecuta un contexto."}], "id": "CVE-2026-46316", "lastModified": "2026-10-19T20:18:42.060", "metrics": {"cvssMetricV31": [{"cvssData": {"attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "LOCAL", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 9.3, "baseSeverity": "CRITICAL", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "scope": "CHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.1"}, "exploitabilityScore": 2.5, "impactScore": 6.0, "source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "type": "Secondary"}, {"cvssData": {"attackComplexity": "HIGH", "attackVector": "LOCAL", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 7.0, "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.1"}, "exploitabilityScore": 1.0, "impactScore": 5.9, "source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "type": "Secondary"}], "ssvcV203": [{"source": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "ssvcData": {"id": "CVE-2026-46316", "options": [{"exploitation": "none"}, {"automatable": "no"}, {"technicalImpact": "total"}], "role": "CISA Coordinator", "timestamp": "2026-10-16T15:21:53.264674Z", "version": "2.0.3"}}]}, "published": "2026-06-09T13:16:36.887", "references": [{"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/13031fb6b8357fbbcded2a7f4cba73e4781ee594"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2bbc395e81bd29c543a0529a678327e932a7ec69"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9121f4605ab94969f62d1b5714ca3c6c69bd202f"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b7b72e88046328c9fdc638fe887d4240257dd5dc"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "tags": ["Third Party Advisory"], "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:34911"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "tags": ["Third Party Advisory"], "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:36018"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:38902"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:39371"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:40764"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:40779"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:40787"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "url": "https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:44231"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "tags": ["Third Party Advisory"], "url": "https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-46316"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "tags": ["Third Party Advisory"], "url": "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2486982"}, {"source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "tags": ["Third Party Advisory"], "url": "https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-46316.json"}], "sourceIdentifier": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "vulnStatus": "Modified", "weaknesses": [{"description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "NVD-CWE-Other"}], "source": "nvd@nist.gov", "type": "Primary"}, {"description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-362"}], "source": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "type": "Secondary"}, {"description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-911"}], "source": "0b0ca135-0b70-47e7-9f44-1890c2a1c46c", "type": "Secondary"}]}
