CVE-2026-63955
HIGH
7.5
CVSS 3.1
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/vmalloc: do not trigger BUG() on BH disabled context
__get_vm_area_node() currently triggers a BUG() if in_interrupt() returns
true. However, in_interrupt() also reports true when BH are disabled.
The bridge code can call rhashtable_lookup_insert_fast() with bottom
halves disabled:
__vlan_add()
-> br_fdb_add_local()
spin_lock_bh(&br->hash_lock); <-- Disable BH
-> fdb_add_local()
-> fdb_create()
-> rhashtable_lookup_insert_fast()
-> kvmalloc()
-> vmalloc()
-> __get_vm_area_node()
-> BUG_ON(in_interrupt())
spin_unlock_bh(&br->hash_lock)
this triggers the BUG() despite the caller not being in NMI or
hard IRQ context.
Replace the in_interrupt() check with in_nmi() || in_hardirq().
