Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> KVM: SEV: Fix page dirtying in sev_gmem_post_populate()<br /> <br /> set_page_dirty() requires that the caller holds some kind of lock to<br /> ensure that the page&amp;#39;s mapping does not concurrently go away.<br /> That is not the case for a random page we got from get_user_pages_fast(),<br /> so use set_page_dirty_lock().<br /> <br /> [sean: tag for stable]
