Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's crypto: ccp driver. A local user could exploit this vulnerability by attempting to retrieve the CPU ID when a firmware command fails due to an invalid length. This can cause an overflow of a kernel-allocated buffer, leading to the disclosure of sensitive kernel memory to userspace.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-05-01 15:06:15 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: ccp: Don't attempt to copy ID to userspace if PSP command failed

When retrieving the ID for the CPU, don't attempt to copy the ID blob to
userspace if the firmware command failed.  If the failure was due to an
invalid length, i.e. the userspace buffer+length was too small, copying
the number of bytes _firmware_ requires will overflow the kernel-allocated
buffer and leak data to userspace.

WARN if the driver says the command succeeded, but the firmware error code
says otherwise, as __sev_do_cmd_locked() is expected to return -EIO on any
firwmware error.
