kernel: mm/page_alloc: clear page->private in free_pages_prepare()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's memory management subsystem. When pages are freed, the page-private field is not properly cleared. If these pages are later reallocated as high-order pages and split, the tail pages can retain stale page-private values. This can lead to a use-after-free...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: tee: amdtee: fixed an issue where ISERR returned NULL instead of an error pointer. The getfreepages function does not return error pointers; it returns NULL instead. Therefore, this condition needs to be corrected to avoid NUL...

CVE-2026-46068

CVE-2026-46068 affects the Linux kernel's crypto nx path: bounce buffers allocated with _get_free_pages() (BOUNCE_BUFFER_ORDER) are freed with free_page() instead of free_pages(), causing memory leaks. The fix uses free_pages() with the matching order in nx842_crypto {alloc,free}_ctx. Affected: L...

CVE-2026-46019

CVE-2026-46019 concerns the Linux kernel crypto/atmel-aes path. The issue: atmel_aes_buff_init() allocates 4 pages (ATMEL_AES_BUFFER_ORDER) but atmel_aes_buff_cleanup() frees only the first page via free_page(), leaking 3 pages. Resolution: use free_pages() with ATMEL_AES_BUFFER_ORDER to properly...

PT-2026-43935

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 7.0.11-1.1 Description A memory leak occurs in the Linux kernel crypto nx component. The functions nx842 crypto alloc ctx and nx842 crypto free ctx allocate bounce buffers using get free pages with a specific...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm: pagealloc: moving the mlocked flag to freepagesprepare Syzbot reported a problem with bad page state caused by a page being freed using freepage, while the mlocked flag is still set during the freepagesprepare stage: BUG: Bad...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.10

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: In the mm/pagealloc function, the clearpage-private operation is performed in freepagesprepare. Several subsystems slub, shmem, ttm, etc. use page-private, but they do not clear it before freeing pages. When these pages are later...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1, Linux, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm: vmscan: accounts for free pages to prevent infinite loops in throttledirectreclaim. The task sometimes continues looping in throttledirectreclaim because allowdirectreclaimpgdat keeps returning false. The stack trace is as...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux, Linux 5.10

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: usx2y – Do not call freepagesexact with a NULL address. Unlike some other functions, we cannot pass a NULL pointer to freepagesexact. Add a proper NULL check to avoid potential errors...
