"value": "AV:L - The bug is reached only through the KVM_SET_ONE_REG ioctl on a vCPU file descriptor obtained from /dev/kvm, requiring local access to the host. There is no remote or adjacent-network path to kvm_riscv_vcpu_set_reg_vector().\nAC:L - A single deterministic ioctl with a crafted reg->id size field (bits 52-55) triggers the overrun every time, with the attacker choosing both the copy length and the overflowing data. No race, no memory-layout guessing, and no condition outside the attacker's control on an affected RISC-V host with the V extension.\nPR:L - No capable()/CAP_SYS_ADMIN check exists anywhere on the path — only opening /dev/kvm and creating a VM/vCPU, which unprivileged users in the kvm group and sandboxed VMM processes (QEMU, crosvm) routinely have. The confined VMM process itself is the natural attacker here.\nUI:N - The attacking process performs the ioctl entirely on its own; no victim action, mount, or file open is needed.\nS:U - The attacker is host userspace and the corrupted memory is the host kernel stack of its own task — the same security authority, i.e. standard kernel privilege escalation rather than a guest-to-host or IOMMU boundary crossing.\nC:H - The attacker-controlled stack smash overwrites saved registers, frame pointers and return addresses, which is a classic route to control-flow hijack and hence arbitrary kernel memory disclosure. Per kernel scoring guidance, memory corruption leverageable for info disclosure is High.\nI:H - This is an out-of-bounds kernel stack write of up to ~32 KB with fully attacker-chosen contents and length, directly overwriting return addresses and adjacent frames — an arbitrary-write/code-execution primitive.\nA:H - Even without exploitation, overrunning the 16 KB RISC-V kernel stack reliably corrupts the stack canary, return addresses, or the VMAP guard page, producing an immediate kernel panic that any user with /dev/kvm access can trigger at will."
