CVE-2025-68293

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> mm/huge_memory: fix NULL pointer deference when splitting folio<br /> <br /> Commit c010d47f107f ("mm: thp: split huge page to any lower order pages")<br /> introduced an early check on the folio&amp;#39;s order via mapping-&gt;flags before<br /> proceeding with the split work.<br /> <br /> This check introduced a bug: for shmem folios in the swap cache and<br /> truncated folios, the mapping pointer can be NULL. Accessing<br /> mapping-&gt;flags in this state leads directly to a NULL pointer dereference.<br /> <br /> This commit fixes the issue by moving the check for mapping != NULL before<br /> any attempt to access mapping-&gt;flags.
