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

mm/memory-failure: fix VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page)) when unpoison memory

When I did memory failure tests, below panic occurs:

The root cause is that unpoison_memory() tries to check the PG_HWPoison flags of an uninitialized page. So VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page)) is triggered. This can be reproduced by below steps:

1.Offline memory block:

echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory12/state

2.Get offlined memory pfn:

page-types -b n -rlN

3.Write pfn to unpoison-pfn

echo <pfn> > /sys/kernel/debug/hwpoison/unpoison-pfn

This scenario can be identified by pfn_to_online_page() returning NULL. And ZONE_DEVICE pages are never expected, so we can simply fail if pfn_to_online_page() == NULL to fix the bug.

AnalysisAI

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/memory-failure: fix VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(page)) when unpoison memory When I did memory failure tests, below panic occurs:. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.1), this vulnerability is low attack complexity. This Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability could allow attackers to read data from memory outside the intended buffer boundaries.
