In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing: Fix WARN_ON in tracing_buffers_mmap_close for split VMAs When a VMA is split (e.g., by partial munmap or MAP_FIXED), the kernel calls vm_ops->close on each portion. For trace buffer mappings, this results in ring_buffer_unmap() being called multiple times while ring_buffer_map() was only called once. This causes ring_buffer_unmap() to return -ENODEV on subsequent calls because user_mapped is already 0, triggering a WARN_ON. Trace buffer mappings cannot support partial mappings because the ring buffer structure requires the complete buffer including the meta page. Fix this by adding a may_split callback that returns -EINVAL to prevent VMA splits entirely.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-1430 advisory.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - tracing: Fix WARN_ON in tracing_buffers_mmap_close for split VMAs When a VMA is split (e.g., by partial     munmap or MAP_FIXED), the kernel calls vm_ops->close on each portion. For trace buffer mappings, this     results in ring_buffer_unmap() being called multiple times while ring_buffer_map() was only called once.
    This causes ring_buffer_unmap() to return -ENODEV on subsequent calls because user_mapped is already 0,     triggering a WARN_ON. Trace buffer mappings cannot support partial mappings because the ring buffer     structure requires the complete buffer including the meta page. Fix this by adding a may_split callback     that returns -EINVAL to prevent VMA splits entirely. (CVE-2025-68329)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
