If we use dm-flakey with corrupt bio writes option, it\nwill corrupt the content of the zero page which results in crashes of\nvarious userspace programs. Glibc assumes that memory returned by mmap is\nzeroed and it uses it for calloc implementation; if the newly mapped\nmemory is not zeroed, calloc will return non-zeroed memory.\n\nFix this bug by testing if the page is equal to ZERO_PAGE(0) and\navoiding the corruption in this case.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3c4a56ef7c538d16c1738ba0ccea9e7146105b5a","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/63d31617883d64b43b0e2d529f0751f40713ecae","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/98e311be44dbe31ad9c42aa067b2359bac451fda","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b7f8892f672222dbfcc721f51edc03963212b249","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/be360c83f2d810493c04f999d69ec9152981e0c0"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:18:08.089039631+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2023-54317","score":0.00155,"percentile":0.04536,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
