In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mm: Fix SMP ordering in switch_mm_irqs_off()
Stephen noted that it is possible to not have an smp_mb() between
the loaded_mm store and the tlb_gen load in switch_mm(), meaning the
ordering against flush_tlb_mm_range() goes out the window, and it
becomes possible for switch_mm() to not observe a recent tlb_gen
update and fail to flush the TLBs.
[ dhansen: merge conflict fixed by Ingo ]
flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s x86 memory‐management subsystem (function switch_mm_irqs_off()). Due to a missing smp_mb() memory‐barrier between the loaded_mm store and the tlb_gen load, the ordering of TLB (Translation Lookaside Buffer) flush operations can be violated in SMP systems. This may cause switch_mm() to not observe a recent tlb_gen update and fail to flush the TLBs properly.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options don't meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
