Affected: Linux

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

KVM: SEV: Use READ_ONCE() when reading entries/indices from PSC buffer

Use READ_ONCE() when reading entries/indices from the guest-accessible Page State Change buffer to defend against TOCTOU bugs.

Don't bother with READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() for cases where KVM is writing (and not consuming the result!), as the guest isn't supposed to touch the buffer while it's being processed. I.e. using READ_ONCE() is all about protecting against misbehaving guests.
