# CVE-2026-49418

> 8.8 HIGH

## Beschreibung

When msync(MS_INVALIDATE) is called on a mapping of an unmanaged device object, the physical pages in the mapping range are marked invalid but remain in the pager's page list.  A subsequent page fault will cause the fault handler to re-insert the page into the object's list.  This corrupts the list, and on object destruction the page is freed twice.

An unprivileged local user with access to a device that provides memory-mapped I/O can trigger a use-after-free in the kernel, though this is limited to a pool of objects ("fictitious pages") that are never recycled for a different purpose.  It may be possible to exploit this to escalate privileges.
