CVE-2024-50222
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iov_iter: fix copy_page_from_iter_atomic() if KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP
generic/077 on x86_32 CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP=y with highmem, on huge=always tmpfs, issues a warning and then hangs (interruptibly):
Fix copy_page_from_iter_atomic() by limiting it in that case (include/linux/skbuff.h skb_frag_must_loop() does similar).
But going forward, perhaps CONFIG_DEBUG_KMAP_LOCAL_FORCE_MAP is too surprising, has outlived its usefulness, and should just be removed?
