Technical description

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

drm/xe: Fix an out-of-bounds shift when invalidating TLB

When the size of the range invalidated is larger than

rounddown_pow_of_two(ULONG_MAX),

The function macro roundup_pow_of_two(length) will hit an out-of-bounds

shift [1].

Use a full TLB invalidation for such cases.

v2:

- Use a define for the range size limit over which we use a full

TLB invalidation. (Lucas)

- Use a better calculation of the limit.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2025-37761?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine.
