Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksm: The range-walk function is used to bypass holes in scangetnextrmapitem. Currently, scangetnextrmapitem walks every page address in a VMA to locate mergeable pages. This approach becomes highly inefficient when scanning large...

kernel: ksm: use range-walk function to jump over holes in scan_get_next_rmap_item

A resource exhaustion vulnerability was found in the Kernel Same-page Merging KSM subsystem of the Linux kernel. When scanning processes with large sparse virtual memory mappings e.g., 32 TiB with one mapped page, ksmd inefficiently walks every address rather than skipping unmapped holes. This...
