Descriptions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Remove cache tags before disabling ATS
The current implementation removes cache tags after disabling ATS,
leading to potential memory leaks and kernel crashes. Specifically,
CACHE_TAG_DEVTLB type cache tags may still remain in the list even
after the domain is freed, causing a use-after-free condition.
This issue really shows up when multiple VFs from different PFs
passed through to a single user-space process via vfio-pci. In such
cases, the kernel may crash with kernel messages like:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000014
PGD 19036a067 P4D 1940a3067 PUD 136c9b067 PMD 0

Move cache_tag_unassign_domain() before iommu_disable_pci_caps() to fix
it.
