In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86/mmu: Check write tracking in all address spaces
kvm_gfn_is_write_tracked() checks only the supplied memslot, but page
tracking is per-address-space and shadow pages are shared across all
address spaces. With SMM, a GFN can therefore be write-tracked in one
address space and appear untracked through the other.
Check the supplied slot first, then the slot for the other address space.
This ensures all callers honor write tracking regardless of the active
address space. In particular, it prevents mmu_try_to_unsync_pages() from
marking an upper-level shadow page unsync and eventually triggering the
BUG in pte_list_remove().

CISA SSVCTrack at low or medium mission impact; Track or Attend at high (mission-essential systems).
No fix is confirmed yet. Restrict network exposure of the affected system or apply the vendor's mitigation within your standard update timelines at low or medium mission impact and sooner than that at high, and watch the vendor's advisory for the fix.
Exploitation none (no KEV listing, exploit record or EPSS ≥ 50%) · Automatable unknown (not published for this CVE) · Technical impact partial (CVSS below 9.0). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
