"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mm: Fix pti_clone_pgtable() alignment assumption Guenter reported
dodgy crashes on an i386-nosmp build using GCC-11 that had the form of
endless traps until entry stack exhaust and then #DF from the stack
guard. It turned out that pti_clone_pgtable() had alignment
assumptions on the start address, notably it hard assumes start is PMD
aligned. This is true on x86_64, but very much not true on i386. These
assumptions can cause the end condition to malfunction, leading to a
'short' clone. Guess what happens when the user mapping has a short
copy of the entry text? Use the correct increment form for addr to
avoid alignment assumptions.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
