CVE-2024-41021
Disclosure Date: July 29, 2024 (last updated August 11, 2024)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/mm: Fix VM_FAULT_HWPOISON handling in do_exception()
There is no support for HWPOISON, MEMORY_FAILURE, or ARCH_HAS_COPY_MC on
s390. Therefore we do not expect to see VM_FAULT_HWPOISON in
do_exception().
However, since commit af19487f00f3 ("mm: make PTE_MARKER_SWAPIN_ERROR more
general"), it is possible to see VM_FAULT_HWPOISON in combination with
PTE_MARKER_POISONED, even on architectures that do not support HWPOISON
otherwise. In this case, we will end up on the BUG() in do_exception().
Fix this by treating VM_FAULT_HWPOISON the same as VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, similar
to x86 when MEMORY_FAILURE is not configured. Also print unexpected fault
flags, for easier debugging.
Note that VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE is not expected, because s390 cannot
support swap entries on other levels than PTE level.
