Summary
CVE-2026-64562 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.150.1-1
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

KVM: nVMX: Hide shadow VMCS right after VMCLEAR

freenested() frees the shadow VMCS while vmcs01 still points to it. But because it is asynchronous with respect to loadedvmcs_clear(), the vCPU might migrate before the pointer is cleared and __loadedvmcsclear() may then execute VMCLEAR.

The VMCS needs to stay attached until its explicit VMCLEAR completes, but then it can be hidden and the page safely freed.
