In such case, the pmd will become dirty. This scenario breaks the new can_follow_write_pmd()'s logic - pmd can become dirty without going through a COW cycle. This bug is not as severe as the original \"Dirty cow\" because an ext4 file (or any other regular file) cannot be mapped using THP. Nevertheless, it does allow us to overwrite read-only huge pages. For example, the zero huge page and sealed shmem files can be overwritten (since their mapping can be populated using THP). Note that after the first write page-fault to the zero page, it will be replaced with a new fresh (and zeroed) thp."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "El kernel de Linux desde la versi\u00f3n 2.6.38 hasta la 4.14 presenta un uso problem\u00e1tico de pmd_mkdirty() en la funci\u00f3n touch_pmd() dentro de la implementaci\u00f3n THP.

Este escenario rompe la nueva l\u00f3gica de can_follow_write_pmd(). pmd puede contaminarse sin pasar por un ciclo COW. Este fallo no es tan severo como el error original \"Dirty COW\" porque un archivo ext4 (o cualquier otro archivo normal) no puede ser mapeado usando THP. Sin embargo, permite sobrescribir huge pages de solo lectura. Por ejemplo, los archivos shmem sellados y huge pages con ceros pueden sobrescribirse (ya que se pueden mapear con THP).
