Descriptions

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

dma-direct: Leak pages on dma_set_decrypted() failure

On TDX it is possible for the untrusted host to cause
set_memory_encrypted() or set_memory_decrypted() to fail such that an
error is returned and the resulting memory is shared. Callers need to
take care to handle these errors to avoid returning decrypted (shared)
memory to the page allocator, which could lead to functional or security
issues.

DMA could free decrypted/shared pages if dma_set_decrypted() fails. This
should be a rare case. Just leak the pages in this case instead of
freeing them.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: dma-direct: páginas filtradas en el fallo de dma_set_decrypted() En TDX es posible que el host que no es de confianza provoque que set_memory_encrypted() o set_memory_decrypted() falle de modo que se devuelva un error y la memoria resultante se comparte. Las personas que llaman deben tener cuidado al manejar estos errores para evitar devolver memoria descifrada (compartida) al asignador de páginas, lo que podría provocar problemas funcionales o de seguridad. DMA podría liberar páginas descifradas/compartidas si dma_set_decrypted() falla. Este debería ser un caso raro. En este caso, simplemente filtre las páginas en lugar de liberarlas.
