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

  - lib: test_hmm: evict device pages on file close to avoid use-after-free Patch series Minor hmm_test fixes     and cleanups. Two bugfixes a cleanup for the HMM kernel selftests. These were mostly reported by Zenghui     Yu with special thanks to Lorenzo for analysing and pointing out the problems. This patch (of 3): When     dmirror_fops_release() is called it frees the dmirror struct but doesn't migrate device private pages back     to system memory first. This leaves those pages with a dangling zone_device_data pointer to the freed     dmirror. If a subsequent fault occurs on those pages (eg. during coredump) the dmirror_devmem_fault()     callback dereferences the stale pointer causing a kernel panic. This was reported [1] when running     mm/ksft_hmm.sh on arm64, where a test failure triggered SIGABRT and the resulting coredump walked the VMAs     faulting in the stale device private pages. Fix this by calling dmirror_device_evict_chunk() for each     devmem chunk in dmirror_fops_release() to migrate all device private pages back to system memory before     freeing the dmirror struct. The function is moved earlier in the file to avoid a forward declaration.
