kernel: xen/privcmd: fix double free via VMA splitting

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's xen/privcmd module. A local user could exploit this by performing a partial unmapping of a privcmd memory region. This action causes a Virtual Memory Area VMA to split, leading to duplicated internal memory pointers. As a result, the same memory can be freed...

CVE-2026-31787

CVE-2026-31787 affects the Linux kernel, specifically the xen/privcmd mapping flow. The root cause is a double-free in the VMA splitting path when userspace performs partial munmap() on a privcmd mapping. Because privcmd_vm_ops defines .close but not .may_split or .open, the kernel may_split() pe...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 6.1, Linux 6.12

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/hugetlb: Un-sharing of page tables occurs during VMA splitting, not before. Currently, splitvma triggers the un-sharing of hugetlb page tables through vmops-maysplit. This occurs before the VMA lock and rmap locks are taken –...
