Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
On Uniprocessor (UP) kernels where
CONFIG SMP is not enabled, the spin trylock() function acts as a no-op and succeeds unconditionally, even if the lock is already held. This allows alloc frozen pages nolock() called from a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) context to re-enter rmqueue() and acquire a zone lock already held by the interrupted context, leading to the corruption of freelists. This issue can be triggered when CONFIG DEBUG SPINLOCK is enabled on UP systems.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
