How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:16.0.0 kernel-obs-qa to version 6.12.0-160000.38.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-obs-qa package and not the kernel-obs-qa package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

block: don't overwrite bip_vcnt in bio_integrity_copy_user()

bio_integrity_add_page() already sets bip_vcnt to 1 for the bounce segment. Overwriting it with nr_vecs breaks bip_vcnt <= bip_max_vcnt on WRITE (bip_max_vcnt is 1), so the gap-merge checks in block/blk.h read past the bip_vec[] flex array. On READ the read is in bounds but lands on a saved user bvec instead of the bounce.

The line was added for split propagation, but bio_integrity_clone() doesn't copy bip_vcnt and BIP_CLONE_FLAGS excludes BIP_COPY_USER.
