🇰🇷 한글 설명
Linux 커널의 KASAN(Kernel Address Sanitizer) 모듈에서 페이지 테이블(pXds) 처리 시 발생하는 이중 해제(Double Free) 취약점입니다. 특정 아키텍처(예: PowerPC 64K 페이지 크기)에서 페이지 테이블이 항상 struct page 정렬을 따른다고 가정함으로써 잘못된 메모리 주소를 해제하여 발생합니다.
💡 쉬운 설명
컴퓨터 메모리를 관리하는 프로그램이 이미 해제된 메모리 영역을 다시 해제하려고 시도할 때 발생하는 오류입니다. 이로 인해 시스템이 충돌하거나 보안상 취약점이 생길 수 있습니다.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/kasan: fix double free for kasan pXds
kasan_free_pxd() assumes the page table is always struct page aligned.
But that's not always the case for all architectures. E.g. In case of
powerpc with 64K pagesize, PUD table (of size 4096) comes from slab cache
named pgtable-2^9. Hence instead of page_to_virt(pxd_page()) let's just
directly pass the start of the pxd table which is passed as the 1st
argument.
This fixes the below double free kasan issue seen with PMEM:
