Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
x86/fred: Correct speculative safety in fred_extint()<br />
<br />
array_index_nospec() is no use if the result gets spilled to the stack, as<br />
it makes the believed safe-under-speculation value subject to memory<br />
predictions.<br />
<br />
For all practical purposes, this means array_index_nospec() must be used in<br />
the expression that accesses the array.<br />
<br />
As the code currently stands, it&#39;s the wrong side of irqentry_enter(), and<br />
&#39;index&#39; is put into %ebp across the function call.<br />
<br />
Remove the index variable and reposition array_index_nospec(), so it&#39;s<br />
calculated immediately before the array access.
