CVE-2026-23262

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> gve: Fix stats report corruption on queue count change<br /> <br /> The driver and the NIC share a region in memory for stats reporting.<br /> The NIC calculates its offset into this region based on the total size<br /> of the stats region and the size of the NIC&amp;#39;s stats.<br /> <br /> When the number of queues is changed, the driver&amp;#39;s stats region is<br /> resized. If the queue count is increased, the NIC can write past<br /> the end of the allocated stats region, causing memory corruption.<br /> If the queue count is decreased, there is a gap between the driver<br /> and NIC stats, leading to incorrect stats reporting.<br /> <br /> This change fixes the issue by allocating stats region with maximum<br /> size, and the offset calculation for NIC stats is changed to match<br /> with the calculation of the NIC.
