Subject: CVE-2024-56566: mm/slub: Avoid list corruption when removing a slab from the full list

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/slub: Avoid list corruption when removing a slab from the full list

Boot with slub_debug=UFPZ.

If allocated object failed in alloc_consistency_checks, all objects of
the slab will be marked as used, and then the slab will be removed from
the partial list.

When an object belonging to the slab got freed later, the remove_full()
function is called. Because the slab is neither on the partial list nor
on the full list, it eventually lead to a list corruption (actually a
list poison being detected).

So we need to mark and isolate the slab page with metadata corruption,
do not put it back in circulation.

Because the debug caches avoid all the fastpaths, reusing the frozen bit
to mark slab page with metadata corruption seems to be fine.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
