"value": "AV:L - The out-of-bounds write is reached only via local KVM ioctls on /dev/kvm (KVM_CREATE_VM → KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING with KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_IRQCHIP); no network, Bluetooth, or physical device path reaches kvm_set_routing_entry().\nAC:L - One KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING call with irqchip>=KVM_NR_IRQCHIPS (valid pin/gsi) deterministically executes rt->chip[irqchip][pin]=gsi past the chip[] boundary; the attacker fully controls irqchip, pin, and gsi with no race or uncontrollable layout.\nPR:L - Exploitation requires only opening /dev/kvm and holding a VM fd (kvm group membership or CAP_SYS_ADMIN obtainable in a user namespace), matching unprivileged cloud tenants or QEMU service accounts—not init-namespace root.\nUI:N - No victim interaction is needed beyond the attacker's own KVM setup; a single malicious KVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING ioctl on a VM they control triggers the corruption.\nS:C - A KVM VM operator corrupts host kernel heap memory in the per-VM irq routing table from the KVM userspace interface, crossing the VM-to-host virtualization boundary rather than confining impact to the attacker's VM scope.\nC:H - Unvalidated irqchip indexes cause out-of-bounds writes past chip[] into nr_rt_entries and map[] hlist metadata in a kmalloc'd routing table; per kernel guidance such heap corruption is leverageable for host kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - The attacker controls both the OOB index (irqchip,pin) and written value (gsi), yielding targeted corruption of routing-table pointers/state that can be steered toward host privilege escalation or code execution.\nA:H - Corrupting nr_rt_entries or map[] entries breaks subsequent irqfd/GSI routing lookups and irq injection, causing host kernel oops/panic or persistent VM/host denial of service on LoongArch KVM hosts."
