# CVE-2022-49883: linux: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: smm: number of GPRs in the SMRAM image... CVE-2022-49883 is fixed in 31 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2022-49883, released May 1, 2025. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2022-49883 - Priority: High - CVSS: 7.1 (high) - EPSS: 0.0019 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: May 1, 2025 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: smm: number of GPRs in the SMRAM image depends on the image format On 64 bit host, if the guest doesn't have X86_FEATURE_LM, KVM will access 16 gprs to 32-bit smram image, causing out-ouf-bound ram access. On 32 bit host, the rsm_load_state_64/enter_smm_save_state_64 is compiled out, thus access overflow can't happen. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released |
