Affected and fixed versions =========================== Issue introduced in 6.1 with commit 8220543df148 and fixed in 6.1.8 with commit 1442d51026c5 Issue introduced in 6.1 with commit 8220543df148 and fixed in 6.2 with commit 7f31cced5724 Please see https://www.kernel.org for a full list of currently supported kernel versions by the kernel community. Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions. The official CVE entry at https://cve.org/CVERecord/?id=CVE-2023-52902 will be updated if fixes are backported, please check that for the most up to date information about this issue. Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: mm/nommu.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1442d51026c58e7c11dd5f9b19650632a48676d4 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7f31cced5724e6d414fe750aa1cd7e7b578ec22f
