CVE-2026-31398

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> mm/rmap: fix incorrect pte restoration for lazyfree folios<br /> <br /> We batch unmap anonymous lazyfree folios by folio_unmap_pte_batch. If the<br /> batch has a mix of writable and non-writable bits, we may end up setting<br /> the entire batch writable. Fix this by respecting writable bit during<br /> batching.<br /> <br /> Although on a successful unmap of a lazyfree folio, the soft-dirty bit is<br /> lost, preserve it on pte restoration by respecting the bit during<br /> batching, to make the fix consistent w.r.t both writable bit and<br /> soft-dirty bit.<br /> <br /> I was able to write the below reproducer and crash the kernel. <br /> Explanation of reproducer (set 64K mTHP to always):<br /> <br /> Fault in a 64K large folio. Split the VMA at mid-point with<br /> MADV_DONTFORK. fork() - parent points to the folio with 8 writable ptes<br /> and 8 non-writable ptes. Merge the VMAs with MADV_DOFORK so that<br /> folio_unmap_pte_batch() can determine all the 16 ptes as a batch. Do<br /> MADV_FREE on the range to mark the folio as lazyfree. Write to the memory<br /> to dirty the pte, eventually rmap will dirty the folio. Then trigger<br /> reclaim, we will hit the pte restoration path, and the kernel will crash<br /> with the trace given below.<br /> <br /> The BUG happens at:<br /> <br /> BUG_ON(atomic_inc_return(&amp;ptc-&gt;anon_map_count) &gt; 1 &amp;&amp; rw);<br /> <br /> The code path is asking for anonymous page to be mapped writable into the<br /> pagetable. The BUG_ON() firing implies that such a writable page has been<br /> mapped into the pagetables of more than one process, which breaks<br /> anonymous memory/CoW semantics.<br /> <br /> [ 21.134473] kernel BUG at mm/page_table_check.c:118!<br /> [ 21.134497] Internal error: Oops - BUG: 00000000f2000800 [#1] SMP<br /> [ 21.135917] Modules linked in:<br /> [ 21.136085] CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 1735 Comm: dup-lazyfree Not tainted 7.0.0-rc1-00116-g018018a17770 #1028 PREEMPT<br /> [ 21.136858] Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT)<br /> [ 21.137019] pstate: 21400005 (nzCv daif +PAN -UAO -TCO +DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--)<br /> [ 21.137308] pc : page_table_check_set+0x28c/0x2a8<br /> [ 21.137607] lr : page_table_check_set+0x134/0x2a8<br /> [ 21.137885] sp : ffff80008a3b3340<br /> [ 21.138124] x29: ffff80008a3b3340 x28: fffffdffc3d14400 x27: ffffd1a55e03d000<br /> [ 21.138623] x26: 0040000000000040 x25: ffffd1a55f7dd000 x24: 0000000000000001<br /> [ 21.139045] x23: 0000000000000001 x22: 0000000000000001 x21: ffffd1a55f217f30<br /> [ 21.139629] x20: 0000000000134521 x19: 0000000000134519 x18: 005c43e000040000<br /> [ 21.140027] x17: 0001400000000000 x16: 0001700000000000 x15: 000000000000ffff<br /> [ 21.140578] x14: 000000000000000c x13: 005c006000000000 x12: 0000000000000020<br /> [ 21.140828] x11: 0000000000000000 x10: 005c000000000000 x9 : ffffd1a55c079ee0<br /> [ 21.141077] x8 : 0000000000000001 x7 : 005c03e000040000 x6 : 000000004000ffff<br /> [ 21.141490] x5 : ffff00017fffce00 x4 : 0000000000000001 x3 : 0000000000000002<br /> [ 21.141741] x2 : 0000000000134510 x1 : 0000000000000000 x0 : ffff0000c08228c0<br /> [ 21.141991] Call trace:<br /> [ 21.142093] page_table_check_set+0x28c/0x2a8 (P)<br /> [ 21.142265] __page_table_check_ptes_set+0x144/0x1e8<br /> [ 21.142441] __set_ptes_anysz.constprop.0+0x160/0x1a8<br /> [ 21.142766] contpte_set_ptes+0xe8/0x140<br /> [ 21.142907] try_to_unmap_one+0x10c4/0x10d0<br /> [ 21.143177] rmap_walk_anon+0x100/0x250<br /> [ 21.143315] try_to_unmap+0xa0/0xc8<br /> [ 21.143441] shrink_folio_list+0x59c/0x18a8<br /> [ 21.143759] shrink_lruvec+0x664/0xbf0<br /> [ 21.144043] shrink_node+0x218/0x878<br /> [ 21.144285] __node_reclaim.constprop.0+0x98/0x338<br /> [ 21.144763] user_proactive_reclaim+0x2a4/0x340<br /> [ 21.145056] reclaim_store+0x3c/0x60<br /> [ 21.145216] dev_attr_store+0x20/0x40<br /> [ 21.145585] sysfs_kf_write+0x84/0xa8<br /> [ 21.145835] kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x130/0x1c8<br /> [ 21.145994] vfs_write+0x2b8/0x368<br /> [ 21.146119] ksys_write+0x70/0x110<br /> [ 21.146240] __arm64_sys_write+0x24/0x38<br /> [ 21.146380] invoke_syscall+0x50/0x120<br /> [ 21.146513] el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0x48/0xf8<br /> [ 21.146679] do_el0_svc+0x28/0x40<br /> [ 21.146798] el0_svc+0x34/0x110<br /> [ 21.146926] el0t<br /> ---truncated---
