How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.5 kernel-default-devel to version 5.14.21-150500.55.62.2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-default-devel package and not the kernel-default-devel package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

spi: spi-zynqmp-gqspi: return -ENOMEM if dma_map_single fails

The spi controller supports 44-bit address space on AXI in DMA mode, so set dma_addr_t width to 44-bit to avoid using a swiotlb mapping. In addition, if dma_map_single fails, it should return immediately instead of continuing doing the DMA operation which bases on invalid address.

This fixes the following crash which occurs in reading a big block from flash:
