From 4eb919825e6c3c7fb3630d5621f6d11e98a18b3a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rik van Riel Date: Thu, 2 Jan 2014 12:58:46 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: fix use-after-free in sys_remap_file_pages remap_file_pages calls mmap_region, which may merge the VMA with other existing VMAs, and free "vma". This can lead to a use-after-free bug. Avoid the bug by remembering vm_flags before calling mmap_region, and not trying to dereference vma later.
