CVE-2021-3714

A flaw was found in the Linux kernels memory deduplication mechanism.
Previous work has shown that memory deduplication can be attacked via a
local exploitation mechanism. The same technique can be used if an attacker
can upload page sized files and detect the change in access time from a
networked service to determine if the page has been merged.
