# EntryBleed — CVE-2023-0458
|
||||
|
||||
> ⚪ **PLANNED** stub module. See [`../../ROADMAP.md`](../../ROADMAP.md)
|
||||
> Phase 3.
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
KPTI's user-space-mapped entry trampoline is detectable via
|
||||
`prefetchnta` timing, leaking the kernel base address (defeats
|
||||
KASLR). Universal across modern x86_64 kernels with KPTI; only
|
||||
partial mitigations have shipped upstream.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why this is here
|
||||
|
||||
EntryBleed is **not a standalone LPE**. It's a **stage-1 leak
|
||||
primitive** that future LPE modules can call when they need a kbase.
|
||||
Bundling it as a module:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Lets other modules `#include "core/entrybleed.h"` and call
|
||||
`entrybleed_leak_kbase()` when they need KASLR defeat
|
||||
2. Ships defensive detection rules for prefetchnta-timing-attack
|
||||
patterns (useful for hardened environments)
|
||||
3. Documents the technique with a clear writeup so users
|
||||
understand what "stage-1" means in the broader chain
|
||||
|
||||
## Empirical status on recent kernels
|
||||
|
||||
Verified 2026-05-16: works 5/5 on lts-6.12.88 (no anti-EntryBleed
|
||||
mitigation configured). See
|
||||
`security-research/findings/audit_io_uring_2026-05-16_poc_attempt.md`
|
||||
and the EntryBleed test code at
|
||||
`SKYFALL/bugs/leak_write_modprobe_2026-05-16/exploit.c` lines ~73-150.
|
||||
|
||||
## Upstream patches
|
||||
|
||||
There is no single canonical patch. Partial mitigations include:
|
||||
- `CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET` (per-syscall kernel stack jitter)
|
||||
- Some KPTI hardening discussions on lkml, no merged fix as of
|
||||
lts-6.12.88
|
||||
- The community position remains that "KASLR is best-effort,
|
||||
not a security boundary"
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation plan
|
||||
|
||||
- Lift the proven EntryBleed code from
|
||||
`SKYFALL/bugs/leak_write_modprobe_2026-05-16/exploit.c` into
|
||||
`module.c` here
|
||||
- Expose as both a CLI mode (`iamroot --leak-kbase`) and as a
|
||||
library helper (`uint64_t entrybleed_leak_kbase(void)`)
|
||||
- Detection rules: timing-attack pattern flags, perf-counter
|
||||
anomaly detection (informational — these are hard to make precise
|
||||
without false positives)
|
||||
|
||||
