High [CVE-2026-64402] Fix OOB write in smb_sync_perf_buffer

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: coresight: ultrasoc-smb: Fix OOB write in smb_sync_perf_buffer() When the SMB sink is used as a perf AUX sink, smb_update_buffer() calls smb_sync_perf_buffer() to copy hardware trace data into the perf AUX ring buffer pages.

It derives pg_idx = head >> PAGE_SHIFT from @head, which is handle->head, and indexes dst_pages[pg_idx]. The pg_idx %= nr_pages normalization is only applied after the first loop iteration.

This leaves the initial page index underived from the buffer size, which can result in an out-of-bounds write past dst_pages[] when head exceeds the AUX buffer size. Normalize head modulo the AUX buffer size before deriving the page index and offset, mirroring tmc_etr_sync_perf_buffer().

This vulnerability involves an out-of-bounds write in the `smb_sync_perf_buffer()` function. An attacker could potentially exploit this by causing the system to write data beyond the intended memory buffer, which may lead to system instability or a denial of service (DoS).

This occurs because a page index is calculated incorrectly before being properly normalized, allowing the system to access memory outside its allocated boundaries. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 7 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).

Weakness: CWE-787.
