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

irqchip/gic-v3-its: Avoid truncating memory addresses

On 32-bit machines with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE, it is possible for lowmem allocations to be backed by addresses physical memory above the 32-bit address limit, as found while experimenting with larger VMSPLIT configurations.

This caused the qemu virt model to crash in the GICv3 driver, which allocates the 'itt' object using GFP_KERNEL. Since all memory below the 4GB physical address limit is in ZONE_DMA in this configuration, kmalloc() defaults to higher addresses for ZONE_NORMAL, and the ITS driver stores the physical address in a 32-bit 'unsigned long' variable.

Change the itt_addr variable to the correct phys_addr_t type instead, along with all other variables in this driver that hold a physical address.

The gicv5 driver correctly uses u64 variables, while all other irqchip drivers don't call virt_to_phys or similar interfaces. It's expected that other device drivers have similar issues, but fixing this one is sufficient for booting a virtio based guest.

The Linux Kernel, the operating system core itself. Security Fix(es):

A memory address truncation vulnerability exists in the irqchip/gic-v3-its driver of the Linux kernel. On 32-bit ARM machines with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE enabled, when using larger VMSPLIT configurations, lowmem allocations may be backed by physical memory addresses above the 32-bit address limit. The GICv3 driver allocates the 'itt' object using GFP_KERNEL. Since all memory below the 4GB physical address limit is in ZONE_DMA in this configuration, kmalloc() defaults to higher addresses in ZONE_NORMAL. However, the driver stores these physical addresses in 32-bit 'unsigned long' variables, causing the high addresses to be truncated, which leads to system crashes.(CVE-2026-23085)
