How to fix?

Upgrade Minimos:latest linux-virt to version 6.12.15-r0 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream linux-virt package and not the linux-virt package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

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

KEYS: trusted: dcp: fix improper sg use with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y

With vmalloc stack addresses enabled (CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y) DCP trusted keys can crash during en- and decryption of the blob encryption key via the DCP crypto driver. This is caused by improperly using sg_init_one() with vmalloc'd stack buffers (plain_key_blob).

Fix this by always using kmalloc() for buffers we give to the DCP crypto driver.
