Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nouveau/dmem: Fix vulnerability in migrate_to_ram upon copy error
The `nouveau_dmem_copy_one` function ensures that the copy push command is
sent to the device firmware but does not track whether it was executed
successfully.
In the case of a copy error (e.g., firmware or hardware failure), the
copy push command will be sent via the firmware channel, and
`nouveau_dmem_copy_one` will likely report success, leading to the
`migrate_to_ram` function returning a dirty HIGH_USER page to the user.
This can result in a security vulnerability, as a HIGH_USER page that may
contain sensitive or corrupted data could be returned to the user.
To prevent this vulnerability, we allocate a zero page. Thus, in case of
an error, a non-dirty (zero) page will be returned to the user.

En el caso de un error de copia (por ejemplo, fallo del firmware o hardware), el comando de copia push se enviar\u00e1 a trav\u00e9s del canal de firmware y `nouveau_dmem_copy_one` probablemente informar\u00e1 el \u00e9xito, lo que llevar\u00e1 a la funci\u00f3n `migrate_to_ram` a devolver una p\u00e1gina HIGH_USER sucia al usuario. Esto puede resultar en una vulnerabilidad de seguridad, ya que una p\u00e1gina HIGH_USER que puede contener datos confidenciales o da\u00f1ados podr\u00eda devolverse al usuario. Para evitar esta vulnerabilidad, asignamos una p\u00e1gina cero. Por lo tanto, en caso de un error, se devolver\u00e1 al usuario una p\u00e1gina no sucia (cero)."
