The vulnerability has been fixed in Linux kernel versions 6.18.17, 6.12.77, 6.6.130, 6.1.167, and corresponding commits. Users should upgrade to these fixed versions to remediate the issue. No additional mitigation is required as the fix addresses the root cause.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's dpaa2-switch IRQ handler could cause an interrupt storm due to improper handling of out-of-bounds if_id values. The issue was fixed by adding a bounds check and clearing the interrupt status when a bad if_id is detected, preventing repeated interrupts.
