Segment boundaries that fall\nwithin a 2MB block therefore require a PTE table so that different\nattributes can be applied on either side of the boundary.\n\nKERNEL_SEGMENT_COUNT still correctly counts the five permanent kernel\nVMAs registered by declare_kernel_vmas(). However, since commit\n5973a62efa34 (\"arm64: map [_text, _stext) virtual address range\nnon-executable+read-only\"), the early mapper also maps [_text, _stext)\nseparately from [_stext, _etext). This adds one more early-only split\nand can require one more page-table page than the existing\nEARLY_SEGMENT_EXTRA_PAGES allowance reserves.\n\nIncrease the 4K-page early mapping allowance by one page to cover that\nadditional split.\n\n[catalin.marinas@arm.com: rewrote part of the commit log]\n[catalin.marinas@arm.com: expanded the code comment]", "affected": [ { "package": { "ecosystem": "Raspberry Pi OS:12", "name": "linux" }, "versions": [ "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1~bookworm", "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1~bookworm", "1:6.12.87-1+rpt1~bookworm" ], "ecosystem_specific": { "binaries": [ { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.62+rpt-rpi-2712", "binary_version": "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1~bookworm" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.62+rpt-rpi-v8", "binary_version": "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1~bookworm" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.62+rpt-rpi-v8-rt", "binary_version": "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1~bookworm" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.75+rpt-rpi-2712", "binary_version": "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1~bookworm" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.75+rpt-rpi-v8", "binary_version": "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1~bookworm" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.75+rpt-rpi-v8-rt", "binary_version": "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1~bookworm" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.87+rpt-rpi-2712", "binary_version": "1:6.12.87-1+rpt1~bookworm" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.87+rpt-rpi-v8", "binary_version": "1:6.12.87-1+rpt1~bookworm" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.87+rpt-rpi-v8-rt", "binary_version": "1:6.12.87-1+rpt1~bookworm" } ] }, "database_specific": { "per_version": { "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1~bookworm": { "linux_commit": "a1073743767f9e7fdc7017ababd2a07ea0c97c1c", "upstream_version": "6.12.62", "assessment": "commit ancestry (strak rule)", "upstream_fixed": "6.12.91" }, "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1~bookworm": { "linux_commit": "89050b1059997d38d55462b323b099a6436dc10d", "upstream_version": "6.12.75", "assessment": "commit ancestry (strak rule)", "upstream_fixed": "6.12.91" }, "1:6.12.87-1+rpt1~bookworm": { "linux_commit": "ae4d75fb36deba0fe1a986d9bfae65755e082dd0", "upstream_version": "6.12.87", "assessment": "commit ancestry (strak rule)", "upstream_fixed": "6.12.91" } } } }, { "package": { "ecosystem": "Raspberry Pi OS:13", "name": "linux" }, "versions": [ "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1", "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1", "1:6.18.29-1+rpt1" ], "ecosystem_specific": { "binaries": [ { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.62+rpt-rpi-2712", "binary_version": "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.62+rpt-rpi-v8", "binary_version": "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.62+rpt-rpi-v8-rt", "binary_version": "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.75+rpt-rpi-2712", "binary_version": "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.75+rpt-rpi-v8", "binary_version": "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.12.75+rpt-rpi-v8-rt", "binary_version": "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.18.29+rpt-rpi-2712", "binary_version": "1:6.18.29-1+rpt1" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.18.29+rpt-rpi-v8", "binary_version": "1:6.18.29-1+rpt1" }, { "binary_name": "linux-image-6.18.29+rpt-rpi-v8-rt", "binary_version": "1:6.18.29-1+rpt1" } ] }, "database_specific": { "per_version": { "1:6.12.62-1+rpt1": { "linux_commit": "a1073743767f9e7fdc7017ababd2a07ea0c97c1c", "upstream_version": "6.12.62", "assessment": "commit ancestry (strak rule)", "upstream_fixed": "6.12.91" }, "1:6.12.75-1+rpt1": { "linux_commit": "89050b1059997d38d55462b323b099a6436dc10d", "upstream_version": "6.12.75", "assessment": "commit ancestry (strak rule)", "upstream_fixed": "6.12.91" }, "1:6.18.29-1+rpt1": { "linux_commit": "66318c5b5cd8145a662303af12ed39ac07eb27cc", "upstream_version": "6.18.29", "assessment": "commit ancestry (strak rule)", "upstream_fixed": "6.18.33" } } } } ], "references": [ { "type": "ADVISORY", "url": "https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-53288" }, { "type": "FIX", "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a4ff33053da0a34b14abb5c96dc5a48379e26fce" }, { "type": "FIX", "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/dcb89deed40ba55ff7020061712fdabf098cc2cc" }, { "type": "FIX", "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9fe9e3acaa14921b0cf0d6cc2de5b562499bf721" }, { "type": "FIX", "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4d8e74ad4585672489da6145b3328d415f50db82" } ], "database_specific": { "source": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/security/vulns.git", "upstream_modified": "2026-06-26T19:40:50Z" } }
