CVE-2026-98718

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

KVM: SEV: Do cache maintenance on the source VM *before* clearing SEV state

Explicitly flush caches after intra-host migration before clearing "SEV
active" on the source VM, as doing cache maintenance afterwards creates a
tiny window where memory reclaim could return memory to the host without
performing a cache flush, e.g. as pointed out by Sashiko:

  CPU1 in sev_migrate_from():
    src->active = false;

  CPU2 running concurrent unmap:
    Since active is false, the automatic cache flush in
    sev_guest_memory_reclaimed is skipped.
    The host frees and reallocates the page.

  CPU1 in sev_migrate_from():
    sev_writeback_caches(src_kvm);
    Executes a hardware cache flush (wbnoinvd), which writes the guest's old
    dirty ciphertext over the new page owner's data.
