CVE-2024-41033

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A vulnerability has been resolved in the Linux kernel where the cachestat() function was flushing stats, which can sleep, in its RCU read section. This issue occurred in the workingset test recent() step, which checks if the folio's eviction is recent. The stat flushing step has been moved to before the RCU read section of cachestat, and stat flushing is skipped during the recency check.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
