After memblock_init(),\nthose late calls of memblock_reserve() operate on subregions of memblock\n.memory regions. As a result, these reserved regions will be set to the\ncorrect node at the first iteration of memmap_init_reserved_pages().\n\nSo set all reserved memblocks on Node#0 at initialization can avoid this\npanic.","modified":"2026-08-17T03:36:37.829932401Z","published":"2024-03-02T21:52:20.064Z","database_specific":{"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/52xxx/CVE-2023-52506.json","cna_assigner":"Linux"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/19878758accf6b2788091a771d9f9fee7bab11ab"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b795fb9f5861ee256070d59e33130980a01fadd7"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f105e893a8edd48bdf4bef9fef845a9ff402f737"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/52xxx/CVE-2023-52506.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-52506"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"61167ad5fecdeaa037f3df1ba354dddd5f66a1ed"},{"fixed":"19878758accf6b2788091a771d9f9fee7bab11ab"},{"fixed":"b795fb9f5861ee256070d59e33130980a01fadd7"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2023-52506.json"}},{"package":{"name":"Kernel","ecosystem":"Linux"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.5.0"},{"fixed":"6.5.6"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2023-52506.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
