CVE intelligence and bounded remediation
CVE-2024-53225 — Linux Linux Kernel security vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/tegra241-cmdqv: Fix alignment failure at max_n_shift When configuring a kernel with PAGE_SIZE=4KB, depending on its setting of CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT, VCMDQ_LOG2SIZE_MAX=19 could fail the alignment test and trigger a WARN_ON: WARNING: at drivers/iommu/arm/arm-smmu-v3/arm-smmu-v3.c:3646 Call trace: arm_smmu_init_one_queue+0x15c/0x210 tegra241_cmdqv_init_structures+0x114/0x338 arm_smmu_device_probe+0xb48/0x1d90 Fix it by capping max_n_shift to CMDQ_MAX_SZ_SHIFT as SMMUv3 CMDQ does.

Matched remediation archetype
General vulnerability remediation
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Confirm the affected component, deployment paths, reachable interfaces, and enabled features from inventories and configuration, without probing production destructively.
- Compare the advisory's affected conditions with the repository lockfiles, build manifests, artifacts, and runtime inventory.
- Identify data sensitivity, trust boundaries, and privilege level for every confirmed affected deployment.
Remediate safely
- Apply a vendor-supported fix or remove the affected component or feature; record the selected change and its source in the repository.
- Update direct and transitive dependency locks, generated artifacts, deployment manifests, and asset inventories together.
- Add a regression test for the documented unsafe condition using inert inputs and preserve rollback instructions.
