If an unprivileged userspace process mmaps a non-imported GEM\nobject and then calls madvise(MADV_DONTNEED), the PTEs will be\nsuccessfully cleared because VM_MIXEDMAP allows this (unlike VM_PFNMAP).\n\nWhen userspace subsequently accesses the memory, drm_gem_shmem_fault()\nhandles the page fault and attempts to map the backing shmem page via\nvmf_insert_pfn() which calls vmf_insert_pfn_prot(). Because the backing\nshmem page is normal system memory (pfn_valid(pfn) is true) and the VMA\nnow has VM_MIXEDMAP set, won't this predictably trigger the explicit\nassertion BUG_ON((vma->vm_flags & VM_MIXEDMAP) && pfn_valid(pfn))\n\nFix by removing the vm_flags_mod() call and replacing the vm_insert_pages()\npre-population with the handle_mm_fault() loop that was already used for\nthe import (dma-buf) path.","published":"2026-08-22T16:16:46.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-15T11:17:49.000Z","status":"Received","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":null,"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00206,"percentile":0.10637,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"unknown","text":"Not yet scored.
