DEBIAN-CVE-2025-40012

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/smc: fix warning in smcrxsplice() when calling getpage() smcloregisterdmb() allocates DMB buffers with kzalloc(), which are later passed to getpage() in smcrxsplice(). Since kmalloc memory is not page-backed, this triggers WARNONONCE() in getpage() and prevents holding a refcount on the buffer. This can lead to use-after-free if the memory is released before splicetopipe() completes. Use folioalloc() instead, ensuring DMBs are page-backed and safe for getpage().
