CVE-2025-68231

Estado: AplazadaSin puntuar—

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

mm/mempool: fix poisoning order>0 pages with HIGHMEM

The kernel test has reported:

Christoph found out this is due to the poisoning code not dealing properly with CONFIG_HIGHMEM because only the first page is mapped but then the whole potentially high-order page is accessed.

We could give up on HIGHMEM here, but it's straightforward to fix this with a loop that's mapping, poisoning or checking and unmapping individual pages.
