What to Know

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

ring-buffer: Check resize_disabled before publishing the new subbuf order

ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() stores the new order and only then walks

the CPUs, returning -EBUSY if any of them has resizing disabled. A user

mapped buffer has resizing disabled, and __rb_map_vma() reads

buffer->subbuf_order without buffer->mutex, so an mmap of an already

mapped CPU racing the failing order change sizes the mapping with the

new order and inserts pages past the sub-buffer into the VMA.

Check the CPUs before storing the new order. (NVD)

What to Do

Monitor Linux's web page for any future patch releases.
