CVE-2026-89442

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

platform/x86: ISST: Validate socket ID in clos_assoc ioctl

isst_if_clos_assoc() validates the user-supplied socket_id with

'socket_id > topology_max_packages()', but isst_common.sst_inst[] is

allocated with topology_max_packages() entries, so the valid index range

is [0, topology_max_packages()). The '>' comparison lets

socket_id == topology_max_packages() pass and index one entry past the

array.

In addition, isst_common.sst_inst[socket_id] is NULL for an in-range

package that has no bound TPMI SST instance, and the pointer is used

without a NULL check. Both the out-of-bounds entry and the NULL pointer

are then dereferenced by map_partition_power_domain_id() and the

following power_domain_info access.

Reject socket_id >= topology_max_packages() and a NULL sst_inst, matching

the checks already performed by get_instance().
