UBUNTU-CVE-2025-40340: Low severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability

Q: Which Ubuntu kernel packages are listed as affected?

The listed packages are ubuntu/linux-riscv, ubuntu/linux-realtime, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, ubuntu/linux-azure-fde, ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge, ubuntu/linux-gke, and ubuntu/linux-gkeop.

Q: What conditions are associated with the observed crash?

The oops was observed during the xe-fast-feedback test list, after the core_hotunplug unbind-rebind test completed, on a realtime kernel without debug options. The described path involves a process memory mapping, FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT behavior, and no remaining process memory to populate.

Q: What is the failure mechanism described for this issue?

ttm_bo_vm_dummy_page() may return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE when there is nothing left to populate. The subsequent access to tbo->resource->mem_type can then dereference a NULL tbo->resource and cause an oops.

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Fix oops in xegemfault when running corehotunplug test. I saw an oops in xegemfault when running the xe-fast-feedback testlist against the realtime kernel without debug options enabled. The panic happens after corehotunplug unbind-rebind finishes. Presumably what happens is that a process mmaps, unlocks because of the FAULTFLAGRETRYNOWAIT logic, has no process memory left, causing ttmbovmdummypage() to return VMFAULTNOPAGE, since there was nothing left to populate, and then oopses in "memtypeisvram(tbo->resource->memtype)" because tbo->resource is NULL. It's convoluted, but fits the data and explains the oops after the test exits.
