CVE-2024-44973

The CVE-2024-44973 vulnerability in the Linux kernel concerns the SLUB allocator when freeing kfence objects. The issue arose because the kfence object free path was moved out of do_slab_free but one spot in __kmem_cache_free_bulk was missed, risking a crash (example stack trace shown in the init...

CVE-2024-44973 mm, slub: do not call do_slab_free for kfence object

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm, slub: do not call doslabfree for kfence object In 782f8906f805 the freeing of kfence objects was moved from deep inside doslabfree to the wrapper functions outside. This is a nice change, but unfortunately it missed one spot ...
