Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel version 6.7.0-rc7-custom+
Description
The vulnerability is related to the bcachefs filesystem in the Linux kernel. The issue arises from the incorrect freeing of memory allocated for
bch fs::snapshots using kfree instead of kvfree. This can lead to a page fault when the umount command is executed. The vulnerability is identified by the error message "BUG: unable to handle page fault for address" and is associated with a supervisor read access in kernel mode.Recommendations
To resolve this issue, update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix for the bcachefs vulnerability. Ensure that the
bch fs::snapshots memory is freed using kvfree instead of kfree to prevent page faults during the umount process.Note: The provided information does not specify the exact version that includes the fix, so it is recommended to update to the latest available version of the Linux kernel.
