      "title": "mm: swap_cgroup: fix NULL deref in lookup_swap_cgroup_id on swapless host",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmm: swap_cgroup: fix NULL deref in lookup_swap_cgroup_id on swapless host\n\nlookup_swap_cgroup_id() passes swap_cgroup_ctrl[type].map to\n__swap_cgroup_id_lookup() without checking that the type was ever\nregistered via swap_cgroup_swapon().  On a swapless host every ctrl->map\nis NULL, so __swap_cgroup_id_lookup() dereferences NULL + a scaled\nswp_offset().\n\nSince commit bea67dcc5eea (\"mm: attempt to batch free swap entries for\nzap_pte_range()\"), zap_pte_range() -> swap_pte_batch() calls\nlookup_swap_cgroup_id() on any non-present, non-none PTE that decodes as a\nreal swap entry, without first validating it against swap_info[].  A\nsingle PTE corrupted into a type-0 swap entry takes the host down at\nprocess exit.\n\nWe hit this in production on a swapless 6.12.58 host: ~1s of\n\"get_swap_device: Bad swap file entry 3f800204222bb\" (do_swap_page() being\ncorrectly defensive about the same entry) followed by\n\n  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 000003f800204220\n  RIP: 0010:lookup_swap_cgroup_id+0x2b/0x60\n  Call Trace:\n   swap_pte_batch+0xbf/0x230\n   zap_pte_range+0x4c8/0x780\n   unmap_page_range+0x190/0x3e0\n   exit_mmap+0xd9/0x3c0\n   do_exit+0x20c/0x4b0\n\nsyzbot has reported the identical stack.\n\nThe source of the PTE corruption is a separate bug; this change makes the\nteardown path as robust as the fault path already is.  Every other caller\nof lookup_swap_cgroup_id() is downstream of a get_swap_device() that has\nalready validated the entry, so the new branch is cold.",
