CVE-2026-31602
ALSA: ctxfi: Limit PTP to a single page
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ctxfi: Limit PTP to a single page
Commit 391e69143d0a increased CT_PTP_NUM from 1 to 4 to support 256
playback streams, but the additional pages are not used by the card
correctly. The CT20K2 hardware already has multiple VMEM_PTPAL
registers, but using them separately would require refactoring the
entire virtual memory allocation logic.
ct_vm_map() always uses PTEs in vm->ptp[0].area regardless of
CT_PTP_NUM. On AMD64 systems, a single PTP covers 512 PTEs (2M). When
aggregate memory allocations exceed this limit, ct_vm_map() tries to
access beyond the allocated space and causes a page fault:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffd4ae8a10a000
Oops: Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP PTI
RIP: 0010:ct_vm_map+0x17c/0x280 [snd_ctxfi]

Revert CT_PTP_NUM to 1. The 256 SRC_RESOURCE_NUM and playback_count
remain unchanged.
