Message-ID: <20240506002842.04450C116B1@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: maple_tree: fix mas_empty_area_rev() null pointer dereference
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
maple_tree-fix-mas_empty_area_rev-null-pointer-dereference.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: maple_tree: fix mas_empty_area_rev() null pointer dereference
Date: Mon, 22 Apr 2024 16:33:49 -0400
Currently the code calls mas_start() followed by mas_data_end() if the
maple state is MA_START, but mas_start() may return with the maple state
node == NULL. This will lead to a null pointer dereference when checking
information in the NULL node, which is done in mas_data_end().
Avoid setting the offset if there is no node by waiting until after the
maple state is checked for an empty or single entry state.
A user could trigger the events to cause a kernel oops by unmapping all
vmas to produce an empty maple tree, then mapping a vma that would cause
the scenario described above.
