In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: debugfs: Fix legacy mode page table dump logic
In legacy mode, SSPTPTR is ignored if TT is not 00b or 01b. SSPTPTR
maybe uninitialized or zero in that case and may cause oops like:
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
