"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\napparmor: fix out-of-bounds write when null terminating a label vec\n\naa_vec_unique() null terminates at vec[n - dups] when VEC_FLAG_TERMINATE\nis passed. If the components are all distinct no duplicates are dropped,\ndups is 0 and the terminator goes to vec[n], so the caller has to provide\nroom for n + 1 entries.\n\naa_label_strn_parse() sets up its vector with vec_setup(profile, vec, len,\ngfp) and then calls aa_vec_unique(vec, len, VEC_FLAG_TERMINATE), but\nvec_setup() does not reserve the terminator entry. Up to LOCAL_VEC_ENTRIES\nit uses the local array of LOCAL_VEC_ENTRIES pointers, above that it\nallocates exactly len pointers. The terminator therefore lands one entry\npast the end of the local array when len is LOCAL_VEC_ENTRIES, and one\nentry past the end of the allocation when len is larger.\n\nlen comes from the number of \"//&\" separated components in the label name\nand label_count_strn_entries() does not bound it. An unprivileged task\nreaches the parse by writing to /proc/self/attr/apparmor/current or through\nlsm_set_self_attr(2), both of which go through do_setattr(), and the name\nis parsed before the change_profile permission is checked.\nThe query_label() path behind the securityfs .access file, which is\nmode 0666, performs no permission check at all. Every component has to\nresolve to a loaded profile, so a system with policy loaded is required.\n\nThe other two VEC_FLAG_TERMINATE users work on a label vec that\naa_label_alloc() has already sized with \"+ 1 for null terminator entry on\nvec\". Reserve the same entry in vec_setup() and DEFINE_VEC(). Passing\nlen + 1 from the caller instead would move len == LOCAL_VEC_ENTRIES out of\nthe local array and into kzalloc()."

"value": "AV:L - An unprivileged local process reaches aa_label_strn_parse() by writing a compound label to /sys/kernel/security/apparmor/.access (mode 0666) via query_label()/query_data(), or via /proc/self/attr/apparmor/current and lsm_set_self_attr(2) through do_setattr(); there is no network-facing path.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls the \"//&\"-separated label string and thus the vector length; when at least eight distinct profiles are loaded (typical Ubuntu/Debian/SUSE policy, or attacker-loaded via user namespaces) with no duplicates, aa_vec_unique() deterministically writes NULL one pointer past the stack array or heap allocation, with no race.\nPR:L - query_label() on the world-writable .access file performs no capability or change_profile check, and do_setattr() parses the name before AA_MAY_CHANGE_PROFILE is tested, so a basic unprivileged local user suffices; real root is not required.\nUI:N - The attacker opens and writes the .access query or their own procattr themselves; no victim action such as mounting a filesystem or opening a file is required.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds write corrupts kernel stack or heap within the same kernel security authority. This is standard local privilege-escalation impact, not a VM escape or IOMMU/sandbox boundary crossing.\nC:H - The one-pointer out-of-bounds write lands in adjacent stack locals or the next kmalloc object. With attacker-chosen allocation size (component count) for heap grooming, that corruption can be leveraged as a kernel memory-disclosure primitive, so confidentiality impact is high.\nI:H - aa_vec_unique() writes a NULL pointer one slot past a LOCAL_VEC_ENTRIES stack array or a heap buffer sized exactly to the attacker-chosen component count. An out-of-bounds write that corrupts adjacent kernel objects is a write primitive suitable for control-flow hijacking.\nA:H - Corrupting an adjacent stack pointer, heap object, or stack canary can oops, panic, or hang the kernel; the unexploited NULL write alone is sufficient for denial of service."
