Defining Atomicity (And Integrity) for Snapshots of Storage in Forensic Computing

The acquisition of data from main memory or from hard disk storage is usually one of the first steps in a forensic investigation. We revisit the discussion on quality criteria for "forensically sound" acquisition of such storage and propose a new way to capture the intent to acquire an...

kernel: x86/mm/pat: fix VM_PAT handling in COW mappings

CVE-2024-35877 pertains to a flaw in the Linux kernel's handling of Page Attribute Table PAT settings during Copy-On-Write COW operations. When a write operation triggers a COW event, the kernel may replace the original page table entries PTEs with anonymous folios. This replacement disrupts the...
