Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

当对未管理的设备对象映射调用 msync(MS_INVALIDATE) 时，映射范围内的物理页被标记为无效，但仍保留在分页器（pager）的页面列表中。随后发生的页面错误（page fault）会导致故障处理程序将该页重新插入到该对象的列表中。这种操作会破坏列表结构，并在对象销毁时导致页面被双重释放（double free）。 拥有设备访问权限且无需特权的本地用户，若能访问提供内存映射 I/O（MMIO）的设备，即可在内核中触发释放后使用（use-after-free）漏洞。不过，该漏洞的影响范围仅限于一组对象（即

Vulnerability Title
Use-after-free in device pager page list
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
When msync(MS_INVALIDATE) is called on a mapping of an unmanaged device object, the physical pages in the mapping range are marked invalid but remain in the pager's page list. A subsequent page fault will cause the fault handler to re-insert the page into the object's list. This corrupts the list, and on object destruction the page is freed twice. An unprivileged local user with access to a device that provides memory-mapped I/O can trigger a use-after-free in the kernel, though this is limited to a pool of objects ("fictitious pages") that are never recycled for a different purpose. It may be possible to exploit this to escalate privileges.
