That means the\nvalue requires translation before being written into hardware, which is\nunfortunately missing from the MOPS handler.\n\nFix it by directly modifying SPSR_EL2 and avoiding the synthetic state\naltogether, which will be resynchronized on the next 'full' exit back\nto KVM.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":8.8},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/10a568010e827108d149779908850afaec898846","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/884b44256041ec6b2dcbe8e6a67384d26145cba1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/dd3b237eb7780d65eae296d3d3a70012b6e7a02f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ff1022c3de46753eb7eba2f6efd990569e66ff95"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:46:40.600842820+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64555","score":0.00129,"percentile":0.02483,"date":"2026-10-31"},"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).
