Subject: CVE-2024-26814: vfio/fsl-mc: Block calling interrupt handler without trigger
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/fsl-mc: Block calling interrupt handler without trigger
The eventfd_ctx trigger pointer of the vfio_fsl_mc_irq object is
initially NULL and may become NULL if the user sets the trigger
eventfd to -1. The interrupt handler itself is guaranteed that
trigger is always valid between request_irq() and free_irq(), but
the loopback testing mechanisms to invoke the handler function
need to test the trigger. The triggering and setting ioctl paths
both make use of igate and are therefore mutually exclusive.
The vfio-fsl-mc driver does not make use of irqfds, nor does it
support any sort of masking operations, therefore unlike vfio-pci
and vfio-platform, the flow can remain essentially unchanged.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-26814 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
