Description

From CVE.org

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu: Restore lost return in iommu_report_device_fault() When iommu_report_device_fault gets called with a partial fault it is supposed to collect the fault into the group and then return. Instead the return was accidently deleted which results in trying to process the fault and an eventual crash. Deleting the return was a typo, put it back.

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
