"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\napparmor: validate DFA start states are in bounds in unpack_pdb\n\nStart states are read from untrusted data and used as indexes into the\nDFA state tables. The aa_dfa_next() function call in unpack_pdb() will\naccess dfa->tables[YYTD_ID_BASE][start], and if the start state exceeds\nthe number of states in the DFA, this results in an out-of-bound read.\n\n==================================================================\n BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in aa_dfa_next+0x2a1/0x360\n Read of size 4 at addr ffff88811956fb90 by task su/1097\n ...\n\nReject policies with out-of-bounds start states during unpacking\nto prevent the issue."

"value": "AV:L - Exploitation requires writing to the local AppArmor policy interface at /sys/kernel/security/apparmor/.load, which is a local filesystem operation.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls the crafted policy data containing the out-of-bounds start state values. No race condition or special conditions beyond the attacker's control are needed.\nPR:L - Loading AppArmor policy requires CAP_MAC_ADMIN, but since unprivileged_userns_apparmor_policy defaults to 1, an unprivileged local user can obtain this capability by creating a user namespace.\nUI:N - No user interaction is needed; the attacker can craft and load the malicious policy autonomously.\nS:U - The vulnerability operates within the kernel security scope; there is no crossing of a virtualization or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - The OOB read from slab memory uses an attacker-controlled offset (u32 start state) that is not bounded to a few bytes, allowing potential disclosure of arbitrary kernel heap data through cascading reads in match_char.\nI:N - This is strictly an out-of-bounds read vulnerability; there is no write primitive or direct data modification capability.\nA:H - The OOB slab read triggers a kernel crash/oops as confirmed by the KASAN report in the commit message, causing a denial of service."
