In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: LoongArch: KVM: Make kvm_get_vcpu_by_cpuid() more robust kvm_get_vcpu_by_cpuid() takes a cpuid parameter whose type is int, so cpuid can be negative. Let kvm_get_vcpu_by_cpuid() return NULL for this case so as to make it more robust. This fix an out-of-bounds access to kvm_arch::phyid_map::phys_map[].

Are you affected?

Enter the version you run. The result uses only the ranges stored on this record.

The check returns affected, not affected, or incomplete. It does not guess a version that is missing from the record.
