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

mm/vmalloc: fix data race in show_numa_info()

The following data-race was found in show_numa_info():

================================================================== BUG: KCSAN: data-race in vmalloc_info_show / vmalloc_info_show

value changed: 0x0000008f -> 0x00000000 ==================================================================

According to this report,there is a read/write data-race because m->private is accessible to multiple CPUs. To fix this, instead of allocating the heap in proc_vmalloc_init() and passing the heap address to m->private, vmalloc_info_show() should allocate the heap.
