Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> x86/tdx: Fix data leak in mmio_read()<br /> <br /> The mmio_read() function makes a TDVMCALL to retrieve MMIO data for an<br /> address from the VMM.<br /> <br /> Sean noticed that mmio_read() unintentionally exposes the value of an<br /> initialized variable (val) on the stack to the VMM.<br /> <br /> This variable is only needed as an output value. It did not need to be<br /> passed to the VMM in the first place.<br /> <br /> Do not send the original value of *val to the VMM.<br /> <br /> [ dhansen: clarify what &amp;#39;val&amp;#39; is used for. ]
