Description
===========

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

mtd: rawnand: lpc32xx_slc: fail DMA transfer on completion timeout

lpc32xx_xmit_dma() waits for the DMA completion callback but ignores
wait_for_completion_timeout(). A timed out DMA transfer is therefore
unmapped and reported as successful to the NAND read/write path.

Return -ETIMEDOUT when the completion wait expires. Terminate the DMA
channel before unmapping the scatterlist so the timed out transfer cannot
continue to access the buffer after the error is returned.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-68466 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:
