Summary

In the Linux kernel, the drm/xe/pf driver was found to process FAST_REQ or EVENT messages, which can break the VF/PF ABI protocol and trigger an assert on the PF side. The fix prevents the PF from handling these message types.

Risk Assessment

The risk involves potential disruption of VF/PF communication integrity, which could lead to GPU virtualization malfunctions or system crashes.

Recommendation

Apply the kernel patch that stops PF from processing FAST_REQ and EVENT messages, and update to a kernel version containing this fix.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe/pf: Don't attempt to process FAST_REQ or EVENT relays Currently defined VF/PF relay actions use regular REQUEST messages only and the PF shouldn't attempt to handle FAST_REQUEST nor EVENT messages as this would result in breaking the VFPF ABI protocol and also might trigger an assert on the PF side. (cherry picked from commit 1714d360fc5ae2e0886a69e979095d9c7ff3568a)
