CVE-2025-37761

High

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Fix an out-of-bounds shift when invalidating TLB When the size of the range invalidated is larger than rounddown_pow_of_two(ULONG_MAX), The function macro roundup_pow_of_two(length) will hit an out-of-bounds shift [1]. Use a full TLB invalidation for such cases. v2: - Use a define for the range size limit over which we use a full TLB invalidation. (Lucas) - Use a better calculation of the limit.
