Technical description

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

KVM: arm64: vgic-its: Reject restored DTE with out-of-range num_eventid_bits

Userspace can restore an ITS Device Table Entry whose Size field encodes

more EventID bits than the virtual ITS supports. The live MAPD path

rejects that state, but vgic_its_restore_dte() accepts it and stores the

out-of-range value in dev->num_eventid_bits.

Reject restored DTEs with num_eventid_bits > VITS_TYPER_IDBITS before

allocating the device. This mirrors the MAPD check and prevents the

restored state from reaching vgic_its_restore_itt(), where the unchecked

value can be converted into an oversized scan_its_table() range.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-64106?

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