NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-livepatch-5_14_21-150400_15_71-rt package and not the kernel-livepatch-5_14_21-150400_15_71-rt package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

copy_params in drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c in the Linux kernel through 6.7.1 can attempt to allocate more than INT_MAX bytes, and crash, because of a missing param_kernel->data_size check. This is related to ctl_ioctl.
