CVE-2024-5660 is a critical vulnerability affecting various ARM Cortex and Neoverse processors, including Cortex-A77, Cortex-X series, and Neoverse V/N series. It stems from the improper use of Hardware Page Aggregation (HPA) and Stage-1/Stage-2 translation, potentially allowing attackers to bypass Stage-2 translation and/or GPT protection. With a CVSS score of 9.8 (CRITICAL), this vulnerability presents a high risk due to its network-exploitable nature, low attack complexity, and potential for complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion, and it is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
