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

mm/page_alloc: don't spin_trylock() in NMI on UP

Patch series "mm/page_alloc: fixes for free_pages_nolock() on RT/UP".

Pre-existing bugs found by Sashiko during review of this other series:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/

I have not reproduced these bugs, and I suspect there is no real-world
user that is affected by them.


This patch (of 2):

As noted in can_spin_trylock(), using this is unsafe in this context.
commit 620b46ed6ae17 ("mm/page_alloc: return NULL early from
alloc_frozen_pages_nolock() in NMI on UP") fixed this on the alloc side
but missed the free side.

Impact: If BPF programs using these features in NMI (probably tracing) are
present on non-SMP builds this might crash the kernel and is probably
exploitable by local attackers for privilege escalation.

Improper Privilege Management 🎯 Medium

The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.

🛡️ Empfohlene Mitigation: Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.

Datenquellen & Methodik: Primärquelle ist die EUVD der ENISA (laufender Datenbank-Sync, alle 15 Minuten), abgeglichen mit dem CISA-KEV-Katalog und der NVD — Detail-Dossiers reichern fehlende Felder live per NVD an — mit Fallback auf CIRCL vulnerability-lookup (EU/Non-Profit, aggregiert CVE-, GitHub- und OSV-Advisories). Der CISA-KEV-Katalog (Known Exploited Vulnerabilities, ~1.700 aktiv ausgenutzte Schwachstellen) wird bei jedem Sync vollständig neu geladen und kreuzreferenziert — filterbar über die KEV-Pille. CVSS 3.1 wird nach Ampel-Logik aus Verteidigersicht dekodiert; EPSS bezeichnet die 30-Tage-Exploit-Wahrscheinlichkeit (FIRST.org).
