Vulnerability description
DayBreach CVE AI Research
CVE-2026-93227 has vendor, distribution, patch and security-source records on file. We can compare them and prepare an explanation linked to the evidence.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/mm_init: deferred_grow_zone(): fix out-of-range first_deferred_pfn With CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT enabled, deferred_grow_zone() initializes struct pages early in boot to satisfy an allocation. With a large CMA reservation in place, the ranges deferred_init_memmap() finds may not add up to the allocation it was asked for, and the function ends up initializing the memory map of the entire zone and still falls short. That is fine in itself: the function accounts for it and leaves the caller to decide whether it now has enough memory. However, the update of pgdat->first_deferred_pfn that tracks where uninitialized memory map starts could overflow. If the node's RAM end is not aligned on PAGES_PER_SECTION boundaries and some deferred struct pages were initialized, pgdat->first_deferred_pfn would point past the end of the node's memory. deferred_init_memmap() later picks up from pgdat->first_deferred_pfn and hits a BUG_ON(), because it expects a pfn within its node. For example, when running a kernel with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT=y and CONFIG_CMA=y using the following qemu command line qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 8032M -kernel bzImage \ -append "nokaslr cma=4768M@0x100000000" the kernel panics: kernel BUG at mm/mm_init.c:2131!
