CVE-2024-49872
Estado: AnalizadaMedia (4.7)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/gup: fix memfd_pin_folios alloc race panic
If memfd_pin_folios tries to create a hugetlb page, but someone else already did, then folio gets the value -EEXIST here:
then on the next trip through the "while start_idx" loop we panic here:
To fix, set the folio to NULL on error.
