From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Konstantin Khorenko Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 16:48:47 +0200 Subject: [Devel] [PATCH RHEL10 COMMIT] ms/x86/bugs: Make Safe-RET robust against interrupt injection In-Reply-To: <20260811114947.3202191-1-ptikhomirov@virtuozzo.com> Message-ID: <202608111448.67BEmla4092572@f0.sw.ru> List-Id: The commit is pushed to "branch-rh10-6.12.0-211.39.1.16.x.vz10-ovz" and will appear at git at bitbucket.org:openvz/vzkernel.git after rh10-6.12.0-211.39.1.16.3.vz10 ------> commit 7c5f71404ed2e471b416cab264e8cb9ecb9845d5 Author: Borislav Petkov (AMD) Date: Tue Aug 11 13:49:35 2026 +0200 ms/x86/bugs: Make Safe-RET robust against interrupt injection commit 7e7f81cf6f5ca3311e526308f55d7c54d3ba71f9 upstream. An attacker injecting interrupts while the Safe-RET mitigation executes on machines affected by SRSO can neutralize the safe return sequence, potentially leading to data leakage through speculative execution. Fixup register state as if the Safe-RET sequence executed successfully by "emulating" it, in a manner of speaking, and avoid executing a RET instruction after returning from the interrupt. Co-developed-by: David Kaplan Signed-off-by: David Kaplan Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Also adding pt_regs forward declaration to avoid possible compilation warnings.
