CVE-2023-54232

The CVE-2023-54232 entries describe a Linux kernel m68k bug in the 030 bus error path (bus_error030). The issue arose when __get_kernel_nofault() could copy data in supervisor mode during a task backtrace log via /proc/sysrq_trigger, leading to bus error handling being ignored and the fault PC ex...

CVE-2023-54232 m68k: Only force 030 bus error if PC not in exception table

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: m68k: Only force 030 bus error if PC not in exception table getkernelnofault does copy data in supervisor mode when forcing a task backtrace log through /proc/sysrqtrigger. This is expected cause a bus error exception on e.g. NUL...

CVE-2023-54167 m68k: mm: Move initrd phys_to_virt handling after paging_init()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: m68k: mm: Move initrd phystovirt handling after paginginit When booting with an initial ramdisk on platforms where physical memory does not start at address zero e.g. on Amiga: initrd: 0ef0602c - 0f800000 Zone ranges: DMA mem...

CVE-2023-54167

The CVE-2023-54167 issue concerns the Linux kernel on m68k where phys_to_virt handling for the initrd was performed before paging_init, causing an access fault on boot with an initial ramdisk on non-zero start memory architectures (e.g., Amiga). The fix postpones phys_to_virt initialization until...

SUSE CVE-2025-68250

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hungtask: fix warnings caused by unaligned lock pointers The blocker tracking mechanism assumes that lock pointers are at least 4-byte aligned to use their lower bits for type encoding. However, as reported by Eero Tamminen, some...

CVE-2025-68250

CVE-2025-68250 affects the Linux kernel. The issue arises from an assumption that lock pointers are 4-byte aligned to use lower bits for type encoding, which fails on architectures with only 2-byte alignment (e.g., m68k). This causes two WARN_ON_ONCE checks to trigger in the hung_task blocker log...
