In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PCI/P2PDMA: Fix p2pmem_alloc_mmap() warning condition Commit b7e282378773 has already changed the initial page refcount of p2pdma page from one to zero, however, in p2pmem_alloc_mmap() it uses "VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_PAGE(!page_ref_count(page))" to assert the initial page refcount should not be zero and the following will be reported when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled: page: refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x380400000 flags: 0x20000000002000(reserved|node=0|zone=4) raw: 0020000000002000 ff1100015e3ab440 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_PAGE(!page_ref_count(page)) ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 449 at drivers/pci/p2pdma.c:240 p2pmem_alloc_mmap+0x83a/0xa60 Fix by using "page_ref_count(page)" as the assertion condition.

Grounded briefings

Catalog interpretations for three audiences. Each brief cites ingested metadata and the original advisories below. They are not independent research and they do not invent exploit steps.

Executive

CVE-2026-46268 is a medium public vulnerability record for linux linux kernel. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited catalog. Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. This summary is a catalog interpretation of the ingested metadata and cites the original advisories below.

System administrator

Identify whether linux linux kernel is in your estate, then compare installed versions with the affected ranges. Affected packages or ranges on record: linux/linux kernel. Check the linked vendor or CERT advisories for patch status. Prefer the vendor or distribution advisory linked in Sources before changing production systems. This is a catalog interpretation, not a runbook.

Security analyst

Signals on file: CVSS 5.5. It is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited catalog. Sources contributing to this record: nvd. Public exploit references, when present, are outbound links only and are not proof of active exploitation. This is a catalog interpretation of stored metadata.

Exploitation and remediation

  • Exploitation evidence

    Not listed as known exploited in CISA KEV. Not in CISA KEV or VulnCheck KEV.

  • Patch and remediation

    No required-action text is stored yet. Use the vendor or CERT links in Sources for patch availability.

  • Safe detection guidance

    Compare installed versions with the affected ranges below and verify the advisory from the original publisher. This site stores metadata and outbound links only; it does not ship exploit code or proof-of-concept payloads.
