{"cve":"CVE-2026-46022","nvd":{"published":"2026-05-27T14:17:20.670","modified":"2026-10-15T02:19:38.767","status":"Modified","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmisc: ibmasm: fix OOB MMIO read in ibmasm_handle_mouse_interrupt()\n\nibmasm_handle_mouse_interrupt() performs an out-of-bounds MMIO read\nwhen the queue reader or writer index from hardware exceeds\nREMOTE_QUEUE_SIZE (60).\n\nA compromised service processor can trigger this by writing an\nout-of-range value to the reader or writer MMIO register before\nasserting an interrupt. Since writer is re-read from hardware on\nevery loop iteration, it can also be set to an out-of-range value\nafter the loop has already started.\n\nThe root cause is that get_queue_reader() and get_queue_writer() return\nraw readl() values that are passed directly into get_queue_entry(),\nwhich computes:\n\n  queue_begin + reader * sizeof(struct remote_input)\n\nwith no bounds check. This unchecked MMIO address is then passed to\nmemcpy_fromio(), reading 8 bytes from unintended device registers.\nFor sufficiently large values the address falls outside the PCI BAR\nmapping entirely, triggering a machine check exception.\n\nFix by checking both indices against REMOTE_QUEUE_SIZE at the top of\nthe loop body, before any call to get_queue_entry(). On an out-of-range\nvalue, reset the reader register to 0 via set_queue_reader() before\nbreaking, so that normal queue operation can resume if the corrupted\nhardware state is transient.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","score":7.1},"cwes":["CWE-125"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/07c4f18b303106e6b24492c12b95d48a4b985841","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1ca75f6b74ec7f685464e5745ecfcf3a76d284e9","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/22a16d3eafee92a165c756081587c95850127107","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4b6e6ead556734bdc14024c5f837132b1e7a4b84","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6f6ecc9153df176e956d0664b56f93080b0a45f0"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:36:28.938604137+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-46022","score":0.00148,"percentile":0.03956,"date":"2026-10-25"},"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).
