"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\niommu/vt-d: Disallow dirty tracking if incoherent page walk\n\nDirty page tracking relies on the IOMMU atomically updating the dirty bit\nin the paging-structure entry. For this operation to succeed, the paging-\nstructure memory must be coherent between the IOMMU and the CPU. In\nanother word, if the iommu page walk is incoherent, dirty page tracking\ndoesn't work.\n\nThe Intel VT-d specification, Section 3.10 \"Snoop Behavior\" states:\n\n\"Remapping hardware encountering the need to atomically update A/EA/D bits\n in a paging-structure entry that is not snooped will result in a non-\n recoverable fault.\"\n\nTo prevent an IOMMU from being incorrectly configured for dirty page\ntracking when it is operating in an incoherent mode, mark SSADS as\nsupported only when both ecap_slads and ecap_smpwc are supported."

"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable configuration is reached only through local ioctls on /dev/iommu (IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC with IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC_DIRTY_TRACKING, then IOMMU_HWPT_SET_DIRTY_TRACKING) against a bound VFIO device fd. There is no network-facing path into the VT-d dirty-tracking code.\nAC:L - On an affected IOMMU the attacker deterministically allocates the dirty-tracking hwpt and enables SSADE with two ioctls — no race to win and no memory layout to groom. Where the IOMMU is emulated for a guest, the ecap_slads=1/ecap_smpwc=0 combination is itself under attacker or hypervisor control.\nPR:L - Access to /dev/iommu plus a VFIO device fd is required, which in standard device-assignment deployments is delegated to the unprivileged VMM user (qemu/libvirt) rather than requiring real root. A compromised VMM process or a user in a device-assignment group can drive the entire sequence.\nUI:N - The full sequence — hwpt allocation, dirty-tracking enable, and the subsequent device DMA — is driven entirely by the attacker's own process and the device it already controls. No victim action is needed.\nS:C - The defect is in the IOMMU's own DMA-isolation enforcement: SSADE is programmed on hardware that cannot coherently update paging-structure entries, and the unflushed cached RMW in intel_iommu_read_and_clear_dirty() can resurrect stale second-stage PTEs. An assigned device's DMA then reaches memory outside its authorized translation, crossing the IOMMU security boundary.\nC:H - Stale or incorrectly-updated second-stage paging entries leave a device-visible mapping to host pages that have been unmapped and potentially reassigned, giving the controlled device DMA reads of arbitrary host memory. Dirty-bitmap results are also unreliable, leaking incorrect state across a migration boundary.\nI:H - The same stale-translation window gives the assigned device DMA writes into host memory outside its mapping — an arbitrary write primitive from the device side that defeats IOMMU containment. Silently missed dirty pages additionally corrupt guest memory state on live migration.\nA:H - The VT-d specification mandates a non-recoverable fault whenever the hardware must atomically update A/EA/D bits in a non-snooped paging-structure entry, so the assigned device's DMA is blocked outright and the DMAR fault handler is driven repeatedly. The device and any VM depending on it are rendered inoperable."
