kernel: mm/slab: do not limit zeroing to orig_size when only red zoning is enabled

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's memory management subsystem. This issue occurs when the kernel's memory allocator attempts to zero out newly allocated memory, but an incorrect check prevents the full memory region from being cleared under specific configurations. This can lead to memory no...

CVE-2026-64368

The CVE-2026-64368 issue affects the Linux kernel’s slab allocator: when red zoning is enabled, zeroing was overly broad and could affect krealloc()’s __GFP_ZERO contract. The root cause is an imprecise check for the tracked requested size; fixes switch to slub_debug_orig_size() to determine if t...
