Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: iaa - unmap dst before software fallback on decompress
On a hardware analytics error, decompress retries through the software
fallback, which writes req->dst with the CPU while it is still mapped
DMA_FROM_DEVICE. With SWIOTLB active the later dma_unmap_sg() copies the
stale bounce buffer over req->dst, corrupting the result.
Unmap before the fallback runs. The async path unmaps inline; the sync
path signals the retry with -EAGAIN so iaa_comp_adecompress() runs the
fallback after unmapping.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-80945 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
