In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
alpha: fix user-space corruption during memory compaction
Alpha systems can suffer sporadic user-space crashes and heap
corruption when memory compaction is enabled.
Symptoms include SIGSEGV, glibc allocator failures (e.g. "unaligned
tcache chunk"), and compiler internal errors. The failures disappear
when compaction is disabled or when using global TLB invalidation.
The root cause is insufficient TLB shootdown during page migration.
Alpha relies on ASN-based MM context rollover for instruction cache
coherency, but this alone is not sufficient to prevent stale data or
instruction translations from surviving migration.
Fix this by introducing a migration-specific helper that combines:
- MM context invalidation (ASN rollover),
- immediate per-CPU TLB invalidation (TBI),
- synchronous cross-CPU shootdown when required.
The helper is used only by migration/compaction paths to avoid changing
global TLB semantics.
Additionally, update flush_tlb_other(), pte_clear(), to use
READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() for correct SMP memory ordering.
This fixes observed crashes on both UP and SMP Alpha systems.

Anyone responsible for securing a domain controller should prioritize remediation of CVE-2026-41089 , which is a critical stack-based buffer overflow in Windows Netlogon with a CVSS v3 base score of 9.8. Exploitation leads to execution in the context of the Netlogon service, so that’s SYSTEM privileges on the domain controller. For most pentesters, that’s the point at which the customer report more or less writes itself. No privileges
