      <title>CVE-2026-72180 — mm/huge_memory: preserve pmd_swp_uffd_wp on device-private PMD downgrade</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-72180</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;mm/huge_memory: preserve pmd_swp_uffd_wp on device-private PMD downgrade&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;change_non_present_huge_pmd() rewrites a writable device-private PMD swap
entry into a readable one without carrying pmd_swp_uffd_wp() across.  The
PTE-level change_softleaf_pte() does this correctly; mirror that here,
matching what copy_huge_pmd() does for the fork path.  Without the carry,
a plain mprotect() over a UFFD_WP-marked device-private THP strips the bit
and the trap is bypassed on swap-in.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
