Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
efi: runtime: Fix potential overflow of soft-reserved region size
md_size will have been narrowed if we have >= 4GB worth of pages in a
soft-reserved region.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. Due to an integer overflow, certain EFI-related memory reservations might receive a size other than expected, leading to a denial of service.
