CVE-2026-64300

Estado: AnalizadaAlta (7.8)—

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

perf/aux: Fix page UAF in map_range()

map_range() reads rb->aux_pages[], rb->aux_nr_pages and rb->aux_pgoff via perf_mmap_to_page() while holding only event->mmap_mutex. Those fields are serialized by rb->aux_mutex, and mmap_mutex is per event.

Thus, two events sharing one rb via PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT can race rb_alloc_aux() with map_range(), leading to a page-UAF scenario as follows:

Pages mapped as VM_PFNMAP have no refcount protection, so CPU 1 holds a mapping to a freed physical frame.

Fix this by taking rb->aux_mutex across the page walk in map_range().
