"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbpf, arm64: Force 8-byte alignment for JIT buffer to prevent atomic tearing\n\nstruct bpf_plt contains a u64 target field. Currently, the BPF JIT\nallocator requests an alignment of 4 bytes (sizeof(u32)) for the JIT\nbuffer.\n\nBecause the base address of the JIT buffer can be 4-byte aligned (e.g.,\nending in 0x4 or 0xc), the relative padding logic in build_plt() fails\nto ensure that target lands on an 8-byte boundary.\n\nThis leads to two issues:\n1. UBSAN reports misaligned-access warnings when dereferencing the\n structure.\n2. More critically, target is updated concurrently via WRITE_ONCE() in\n bpf_arch_text_poke() while the JIT'd code executes ldr. On arm64,\n 64-bit loads/stores are only guaranteed to be single-copy atomic if\n they are 64-bit aligned. A misaligned target risks a torn read,\n causing the JIT to jump to a corrupted address.\n\nFix this by increasing the allocation alignment requirement to 8 bytes\n(sizeof(u64)) in bpf_jit_binary_pack_alloc(). This anchors the base of\nthe JIT buffer to an 8-byte boundary, allowing the relative padding math\nin build_plt() to correctly align the target field."

"value": "AV:L - BPF is accessed via the bpf() syscall, requiring local system access. There is no remote or adjacent network path to trigger BPF program loading or trampoline attachment.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race — they load the BPF program (creating the misaligned PLT) and trigger the text_poke (by attaching a trampoline). The ~50% misalignment chance is overcome by loading multiple programs. No conditions beyond attacker control are needed.\nPR:L - While CAP_BPF and CAP_PERFMON are required, the BPF token delegation mechanism allows these capabilities to be granted to users in user namespaces. This is a supported, reasonable deployment scenario for containerized BPF workloads.\nUI:N - No user interaction is required. The attacker independently loads BPF programs and attaches trampolines.\nS:U - The vulnerability results in kernel-level control flow corruption within the same security authority. No VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or sandbox boundary crossing occurs.\nC:H - The torn PLT target causes a kernel-mode jump to a corrupted address, which is a control-flow hijack in kernel context. This could be leveraged to read arbitrary kernel memory through code execution.\nI:H - A kernel-mode jump to a corrupted address constitutes control-flow hijacking that could be leveraged for arbitrary code execution in kernel context, enabling arbitrary memory writes.\nA:H - Jumping to a corrupted address in kernel mode will almost certainly cause a kernel panic/oops, resulting in complete denial of service."
