Description
CVE-2025-37761 is a high-severity vulnerability in the Linux kernel's drm/xe component involving an out-of-bounds shift error during TLB invalidation. The flaw occurs when the invalidated range size exceeds a calculated limit, causing an unsafe bit shift operation. This has been fixed by applying a full TLB invalidation for such cases to prevent the out-of-bounds shift.
