Summary

In the Linux kernel, the sgi-gru driver removes dangerous page-table walks performed in interrupt context. The GRU TLB miss handler previously walked page tables without proper locking, potentially leading to races and security issues.

Risk Assessment

Potential memory corruption or system crashes when using GRU hardware.

Recommendation

Update the Linux kernel to the latest version containing the fix.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: sgi-gru: remove interrupt-context page-table walks The GRU TLB miss handler walks a process's page tables without holding page-table locks or a reference to the mapped page. It also uses a kernel page-table accessor on user page tables and supports only PMD-level large mappings on x86-64. Remove the direct walker. Send interrupt faults directly to user polling mode so the existing call-OS fallback retries them in process context. Remove the mmap-lock failure statistic that can no longer be incremented.
