Since size_t is unsigned,\n-ENOENT (typically -2) becomes a huge positive value (0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFE\non 64-bit systems).\n\nThis corrupted value propagates through the call chain:\n  __arm_lpae_unmap() returns -ENOENT as size_t\n  -> arm_lpae_unmap_pages() returns it\n  -> __iommu_unmap() adds it to iova address\n  -> iommu_pgsize() triggers BUG_ON due to corrupted iova\n\nThis can cause IOVA address overflow in __iommu_unmap() loop and\ntrigger BUG_ON in iommu_pgsize() from invalid address alignment.\n\nFix by returning 0 instead of -ENOENT. The WARN_ON already signals\nthe error condition, and returning 0 (meaning \"nothing unmapped\")\nis the correct semantic for size_t return type. This matches the\nbehavior of other io-pgtable implementations (io-pgtable-arm-v7s,\nio-pgtable-dart) which return 0 on error conditions.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-617"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/374e7af67d9d9d6103c2cfc8eb32abfecf3a2fd8","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/41ec6988547819756fb65e94fc24f3e0dddf84ac"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:22:27.261130201+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-23067","score":0.00129,"percentile":0.02494,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
