Subject: Commit aa9f7d5172fa ("mm: mempolicy: require at least one nodeid for MPOL_PREFERRED") for stable
Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2020 07:41:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19632ce1-bd85-9bf4-e76a-e3abfb11a4dd@roeck-us.net> (raw)

Hi,

please consider commit aa9f7d5172fa ("mm: mempolicy: require at least one nodeid
for MPOL_PREFERRED") for stable releases. It does fix a real problem, even though
the CVE assigned to it (CVE-2020-11565) may be a bit bogus.

I verified that the patch applies cleanly all the way to v4.4.y.

Thanks,
Guenter
