Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/secretmem: fix NULL page->mapping dereference in page_is_secretmem()

Check for a NULL page->mapping before dereferencing the mapping in
page_is_secretmem(), as the page’s mapping can be nullified while gup()
is running, e.g. by reclaim or truncation.
