Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ubifs: Fix to add refcount once page is set private
MM defined the rule [1] very clearly that once page was set with PG_private
flag, we should increment the refcount in that page, also main flows like
pageout(), migrate_page() will assume there is one additional page
reference count if page_has_private() returns true. Otherwise, we may
get a BUG in page migration:
page:0000000080d05b9d refcount:-1 mapcount:0 mapping:000000005f4d82a8
index:0xe2 pfn:0x14c12
aops:ubifs_file_address_operations [ubifs] ino:8f1 dentry name:"f30e"
flags: 0x1fffff80002405(locked|uptodate|owner_priv_1|private|node=0|
zone=1|lastcpupid=0x1fffff)
page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_count(page) != 0)
