NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cluster-md-kmp-rt package and not the cluster-md-kmp-rt package as distributed by SLES.

In intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm in arch/x86/events/intel/ds.c in the Linux kernel through 5.11.8 on some Haswell CPUs, userspace applications (such as perf-fuzzer) can cause a system crash because the PEBS status in a PEBS record is mishandled, aka CID-d88d05a9e0b6.
