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

nvme-multipath: fix flex array size in struct nvme_ns_head

struct nvme_ns_head contains a flexible array member, current_path[],
which is indexed using the NUMA node ID:
head->current_path[numa_node_id()]

The structure is currently allocated as:
size = sizeof(struct nvme_ns_head) +
(num_possible_nodes() * sizeof(struct nvme_ns *));
head = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);

This allocation assumes that NUMA node IDs are sequential and densely
packed from 0 .. num_possible_nodes() - 1. While this assumption holds
on many systems, it is not always true on some architectures such as
powerpc.

On some powerpc systems, NUMA node IDs can be sparse. For example:
NUMA:
NUMA node(s): 6
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 80-159
NUMA node8 CPU(s): 0-79
NUMA node252 CPU(s):
NUMA node253 CPU(s):
NUMA node254 CPU(s):
NUMA node255 CPU(s):

That is, the possible/online NUMA node IDs are: 0, 8, 252, 253, 254, 255
In this case: num_possible_nodes() = 6

So memory is allocated for only 6 entries in current_path[]. However,
the array is later indexed using the actual NUMA node ID. As a result,
accesses such as:
head->current_path[8] or
head->current_path[252]
goes out of bounds, leading to the following KASAN splat:

==================================================================

Fix this by allocating the flexible array using nr_node_ids instead
of num_possible_nodes(). Since nr_node_ids represents the maximum
possible NUMA node IDs, indexing current_path[] using numa_node_id()
becomes safe even on systems with sparse node IDs.
