Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

在 Linux 内核中，已修复以下漏洞： mm/page_table_check：跳过特殊的零映射（special zero mappings） 和 函数基于 来统计映射关系。共享零页 PTE（Page Table Entry）和大页零 PMD（Page Middle Directory）属于特殊映射，但 仍可能将它们错误地统计为文件支持页面（file-backed pages）。 未提权的进程可以创建足够多的零映射，导致 溢出，并触发现有的 断言失败。PTE 路径可以通过共享零页实现此行为，PMD 路径则可通过大

Vulnerability Title
mm/page_table_check: skip special zero mappings
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/page_table_check: skip special zero mappings page_table_check_set() and page_table_check_clear() account mappings based on PageAnon(). Shared zero-page PTEs and huge zero PMDs are special mappings, but page_table_check can still account them as file-backed pages. An unprivileged process can populate enough zero mappings to overflow file_map_count and hit the existing BUG_ON(). The PTE path can do this with the shared zero page, and the PMD path can do the same with huge zero mappings. Skip special zero mappings in the user page-table accounting paths. Keep the PTE-side pte_special() check, and identify huge zero PMDs from the mapped folio instead of pmd_special(). That covers architectures where pmd_special() is a no-op without adding huge_zero_pfn checks to the generic counter helpers.
