Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: validate user space vectors during extraction
The bio-based drivers don't necessarily check the alignment split, and
stacking block drivers don't always handle a misalignment detected after
submitting the bio. Validate user vectors against the device's
dma_alignment as the bio is built from the iov_iter, rejecting
misaligned early with -EINVAL.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-89584 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:
