Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified) Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.50

Description The issue is related to the riscv/mm component of the Linux kernel and involves incorrect handling of input, which can lead to a denial of service. The vulnerability is resolved by adding handling for VM FAULT SIGSEGV in the mm fault error() function, ensuring that the process is correctly killed and the kernel does not BUG().

Recommendations For Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.50, update to version 6.6.50 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the vulnerable riscv/mm component until a patch is available. Avoid using the mm fault error() function in sensitive operations until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about other newer versions that contain a fix for this vulnerability.
