      <title>CVE-2024-36000 — mm/hugetlb: fix missing hugetlb_lock for resv uncharge</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-36000</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;mm/hugetlb: fix missing hugetlb_lock for resv uncharge&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is a recent report on UFFDIO_COPY over hugetlb:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;https://lore.kernel.org/all/000000000000ee06de0616177560@google.com/&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;350:	lockdep_assert_held(&amp;amp;hugetlb_lock);&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Should be an issue in hugetlb but triggered in an userfault context, where
it goes into the unlikely path where two threads modifying the resv map
together.  Mike has a fix in that path for resv uncharge but it looks like
the locking criteria was overlooked: hugetlb_cgroup_uncharge_folio_rsvd()
will update the cgroup pointer, so it requires to be called with the lock
held.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
