CVE-2025-39910

Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.5)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/vmalloc, mm/kasan: respect gfp mask in kasan_populate_vmalloc()

kasan_populate_vmalloc() and its helpers ignore the caller's gfp_mask and always allocate memory using the hardcoded GFP_KERNEL flag. This makes them inconsistent with vmalloc(), which was recently extended to support GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO allocations.

Page table allocations performed during shadow population also ignore the external gfp_mask. To preserve the intended semantics of GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO, wrap the apply_to_page_range() calls into the appropriate memalloc scope.

xfs calls vmalloc with GFP_NOFS, so this bug could lead to deadlock.

There was a report here https://lkml.kernel.org/r/686ea951.050a0220.385921.0016.GAE@google.com

Detalles técnicos trazas, registros y código del informe original
This patch:
 - Extends kasan_populate_vmalloc() and helpers to take gfp_mask;
 - Passes gfp_mask down to alloc_pages_bulk() and __get_free_page();
 - Enforces GFP_NOFS/NOIO semantics with memalloc_*_save()/restore()
   around apply_to_page_range();
 - Updates vmalloc.c and percpu allocator call sites accordingly.
