Answer in brief
CVE-2026-74716 records a Unknown severity vulnerability in accel/amdxdna: Fix locally exploitable BUG_ON in amdxdna_insert_pages(). The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Linux/Linux (generic), Linux/Linux (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
A CVSS score is not reported in the current record. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/amdxdna: Fix locally exploitable BUG_ON in amdxdna_insert_pages() In amdxdna_insert_pages(), vm_flags_mod() sets VM_MIXEDMAP and clears VM_PFNMAP. If an unprivileged userspace process mmaps a non-imported GEM object and then calls madvise(MADV_DONTNEED), the PTEs will be successfully cleared because VM_MIXEDMAP allows this (unlike VM_PFNMAP). When userspace subsequently accesses the memory, drm_gem_shmem_fault() handles the page fault and attempts to map the backing shmem page via vmf_insert_pfn() which calls vmf_insert_pfn_prot(). Because the backing shmem page is normal system memory (pfn_valid(pfn) is true) and the VMA now has VM_MIXEDMAP set, won't this predictably trigger the explicit assertion BUG_ON((vma->vm_flags & VM_MIXEDMAP) && pfn_valid(pfn)) Fix by removing the vm_flags_mod() call and replacing the vm_insert_pages() pre-population with the handle_mm_fault() loop that was already used for the import (dma-buf) path.
