CVE-2026-90430

What the bug is

tegra241_vintf_init_lvcmdq() stores the freshly allocated vcmdq pointer to the vintf->lvcmdqs[] array, before tegra241_vcmdq_alloc_smmu_cmdq() builds the vcmdq->cmdq. The error ISR dereferences that cmdq, so a latched LVCMDQ error (e.g. one inherited across a kexec) firing in this window would make tegra241_vintf0_handle_error() pass the still-zeroed arm_smmu_cmdq down to __arm_smmu_cmdq_skip_err(), dereferencing NULL queue register pointers. Drop the store from tegra241_vintf_init_lvcmdq() and publish the vcmdq at the end of the allocation instead, with an smp_store_release() that pairs with an smp_load_acquire() in the ISR, which can see a fully built LVCMDQ or NULL. The user-owned LVCMDQ allocation moves accordingly, publishing the vcmdq once tegra241_vcmdq_hw_init_user() succeeds, using a plain store since a user VINTF's lvcmdqs[] has no lockless reader -- the error ISR only walks the VINTF0 array.

Where it lives

The fix touches these files. If the subsystem is one you do not use, the practical exposure is lower, though the package is still the vulnerable one.

Check it on the machine

grep -wE 'CONFIG_ARM_SMMU_V3|CONFIG_TEGRA241_CMDQV' /boot/config-$(uname -r)

Reads the booted kernel's own configuration, on the machine and nowhere else. =y is built in, =m is a module, and an is not set line means the code is not there.

Show whether Debian builds this, per release

Debian does not build this code in 4 releases. The build rule could not be established for 1 release, so nothing is claimed about those.

?

not established - no Makefile entry for the affected file

n

not enabled on any flavour - this release does not build the code

Where a release above reads "not established", no build rule for the affected file was found in that release's kernel tree. That is a gap in this lookup, not a finding that the code is absent.

all on means the file is compiled; any one off means it is not.

From the configuration Debian publishes for every kernel flavour it builds. It covers only the architectures Debian ships a linux-config package for, and nothing about a kernel you built yourself.
