Title
kunit/overflow: Fix UB in overflow_allocation_test
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: kunit/overflow: Fix UB in overflow_allocation_test The 'device_name' array doesn't exist out of the 'overflow_allocation_test' function scope. However, it is being used as a driver name when calling 'kunit_driver_create' from 'kunit_device_register'. It produces the kernel panic with KASAN enabled. Since this variable is used in one place only, remove it and pass the device name into kunit_device_register directly as an ascii string.

No remote peer data or network protocol reaches `overflow_allocation_test()`.\nAC:L - The dangling stack pointer is stored unconditionally and dereferenced on every single execution of the test suite \u2014 there is no race to win, no allocation failure to induce, and no memory-layout precondition for triggering the use-after-free itself. `kthread` teardown between the test body and the cleanup thread guarantees the stack is already freed at dereference time.\nPR:N - On a kernel built with `CONFIG_OVERFLOW_KUNIT_TEST`, the suite runs automatically during kernel initialization with no authentication, capability check, or credential of any kind gating execution of the vulnerable path. The flaw is reached before any privilege boundary exists.\nUI:N - The test suite executes on its own at boot/module init; the dangling-pointer dereference in `kunit_cleanup()` follows automatically with no action by any user or administrator.\nS:U - The freed-stack read, the resulting oops, and the corrupted sysfs link name all occur inside the kernel\u0027s own security authority; no hypervisor, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - `make_driver_name()` runs `kasprintf(\"%s:%s\", ..., drv-\u003ename)` over a freed kernel stack page from an exited kthread, an unbounded read that continues until a NUL byte and can span recycled stack contents of unrelated kernel threads. Those bytes are consumed as a sysfs link name and, with the `bus_remove_driver()` `pr_debug` enabled, emitted into dmesg \u2014 a genuine kernel stack disclosure.\nI:H - This is a use-after-free of a `const char *` whose target contents are entirely determined by whatever reoccupies the freed kthread stack, and the resulting string drives `sysfs_remove_link()` on the module\u0027s `drivers/` kobject directory \u2014 recycled-memory contents directly steer which kernel sysfs object is torn down, and per UAF scoring this class of dangling-pointer defect is treated as a control-influencing corruption primitive.\nA:H - The fix commit explicitly documents that the bug \"produces the kernel panic with KASAN enabled.\" Even without KASAN, `kasprintf()` walking a freed VMAP_STACK page past its end faults on the vmalloc guard page, giving a kernel oops."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Sightings

Author Source Type Date Other

Nomenclature

  • Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
  • Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
  • Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
  • Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
  • Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
