CWE-476 NULL Pointer Dereference
Publication date:

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> LoongArch: Don&amp;#39;t crash in stack_top() for tasks without vDSO<br /> <br /> Not all tasks have a vDSO mapped, for example kthreads never do. If such<br /> a task ever ends up calling stack_top(), it will derefence the NULL vdso<br /> pointer and crash.<br /> <br /> This can for example happen when using kunit:<br /> <br /> [] stack_top+0x58/0xa8<br /> [] arch_pick_mmap_layout+0x164/0x220<br /> [] kunit_vm_mmap_init+0x108/0x12c<br /> [] __kunit_add_resource+0x38/0x8c<br /> [] kunit_vm_mmap+0x88/0xc8<br /> [] usercopy_test_init+0xbc/0x25c<br /> [] kunit_try_run_case+0x5c/0x184<br /> [] kunit_generic_run_threadfn_adapter+0x24/0x48<br /> [] kthread+0xc8/0xd4<br /> [] ret_from_kernel_thread+0xc/0xa4
