release v0.9.0: 5 gap-fillers — every year 2016 → 2026 now covered
Five new modules close the 2018 gap entirely and thicken 2019 / 2020 / 2024. All five carry the full 4-format detection-rule corpus + opsec_notes + arch_support + register helpers. CVE-2018-14634 — mutagen_astronomy (Qualys, closes 2018) create_elf_tables() int wrap → SUID-execve stack corruption. CISA KEV-listed Jan 2026 despite the bug's age; legacy RHEL 7 / CentOS 7 / Debian 8 fleets still affected. 🟡 PRIMITIVE. arch_support: x86_64+unverified-arm64. CVE-2019-14287 — sudo_runas_neg1 (Joe Vennix) sudo -u#-1 → uid_t underflow → root despite (ALL,!root) blacklist. Pure userspace logic bug; the famous Apple Information Security finding. detect() looks for a (ALL,!root) grant in sudo -ln output; PRECOND_FAIL when no such grant exists for the invoking user. arch_support: any (4 -> 5 userspace 'any' modules). CVE-2020-29661 — tioscpgrp (Jann Horn / Project Zero) TTY TIOCSPGRP ioctl race on PTY pairs → struct pid UAF in kmalloc-256. Affects everything through Linux 5.9.13. 🟡 PRIMITIVE (race-driver + msg_msg groom). Public PoCs from grsecurity / spender + Maxime Peterlin. CVE-2024-50264 — vsock_uaf (a13xp0p0v / Pwnie Award 2025 winner) AF_VSOCK connect-race UAF in kmalloc-96. Pwn2Own 2024 + Pwnie 2025 winner. Reachable as plain unprivileged user (no userns required — unusual). Two public exploit paths: @v4bel+@qwerty kernelCTF (BPF JIT spray + SLUBStick) and Alexander Popov / PT SWARM (msg_msg). 🟡 PRIMITIVE. CVE-2024-26581 — nft_pipapo (Notselwyn II, 'Flipping Pages') nft_set_pipapo destroy-race UAF. Sibling to nf_tables (CVE-2024-1086) from the same Notselwyn paper. Distinct bug in the pipapo set substrate. Same family signature. 🟡 PRIMITIVE. Plumbing changes: core/registry.h + registry_all.c — 5 new register declarations + calls. Makefile — 5 new MUT/SRN/TIO/VSK/PIP module groups in MODULE_OBJS. tests/test_detect.c — 7 new test rows covering the new modules (above-fix OK, predates-the-bug OK, sudo-no-grant PRECOND_FAIL). tools/verify-vm/targets.yaml — verifier entries for all 5 with honest 'expect_detect' values based on what Vagrant boxes can realistically reach (mutagen_astronomy gets OK on stock 18.04 since 4.15.0-213 is post-fix; sudo_runas_neg1 gets PRECOND_FAIL because no (ALL,!root) grant on default vagrant user; tioscpgrp + nft_pipapo VULNERABLE with kernel pins; vsock_uaf flagged manual because vsock module rarely available on CI runners). tools/refresh-cve-metadata.py — added curl fallback for the CISA KEV CSV fetch (urlopen times out intermittently against CISA's HTTP/2 endpoint). Corpus growth across v0.8.0 + v0.9.0: v0.7.1 v0.8.0 v0.9.0 Modules 31 34 39 Distinct CVEs 26 29 34 KEV-listed 10 10 11 (mutagen_astronomy) arch 'any' 4 6 7 (sudo_runas_neg1) Years 2016-2026: 10/11 10/11 **11/11** Year-by-year coverage: 2016: 1 2017: 1 2018: 1 2019: 2 2020: 2 2021: 5 2022: 5 2023: 8 2024: 3 2025: 2 2026: 4 CVE-2018 gap → CLOSED. Every year from 2016 through 2026 now has at least one module. Surfaces updated: - README.md: badge → 22 VM-verified / 34, Status section refreshed - docs/index.html: hero eyebrow + footer → v0.9.0, hero tagline 'every year 2016 → 2026', stats chips → 39 / 22 / 11 / 151 - docs/RELEASE_NOTES.md: v0.9.0 entry added on top with year coverage matrix + per-module breakdown; v0.8.0 + v0.7.1 entries preserved below - docs/og.svg + og.png: regenerated with new numbers + 'Every year 2016 → 2026' tagline CVE metadata refresh (tools/refresh-cve-metadata.py) deferred to follow-up — CISA KEV CSV + NVD CVE API were timing out during the v0.9.0 push window. The 5 new CVEs will return NULL from cve_metadata_lookup() until the refresh runs (—module-info simply skips the WEAKNESS/THREAT INTEL header for them; no functional impact). Re-run 'tools/refresh-cve-metadata.py' when network cooperates. Tests: macOS local 33/33 kernel_range pass; detect-test stubs (88 total) build clean; ASan/UBSan + clang-tidy CI jobs still green from the v0.7.x setup.

## SKELETONKEY v0.9.0 — every year 2016 → 2026 now covered
|
||||
|
||||
Five gap-filling modules. Closes the 2018 hole entirely and thickens
|
||||
2019 / 2020 / 2024.
|
||||
|
||||
### CVE-2018-14634 — `mutagen_astronomy` (Qualys)
|
||||
|
||||
Closes the 2018 gap. `create_elf_tables()` int-wrap → on x86_64, a
|
||||
multi-GiB argv blob makes the kernel under-allocate the SUID
|
||||
carrier's stack and corrupt adjacent allocations. CISA-KEV-listed
|
||||
Jan 2026 despite the bug's age — legacy RHEL 7 / CentOS 7 / Debian
|
||||
8 fleets still affected. 🟡 PRIMITIVE (trigger documented;
|
||||
Qualys' full chain not bundled per verified-vs-claimed).
|
||||
`arch_support: x86_64+unverified-arm64`.
|
||||
|
||||
### CVE-2019-14287 — `sudo_runas_neg1` (Joe Vennix)
|
||||
|
||||
`sudo -u#-1 <cmd>` → uid_t underflows to 0xFFFFFFFF → sudo treats it
|
||||
as uid 0 → runs `<cmd>` as root even when sudoers explicitly says
|
||||
"ALL except root". Pure userspace logic bug; the famous Apple
|
||||
Information Security finding. detect() looks for a `(ALL,!root)`
|
||||
grant in `sudo -ln` output. `arch_support: any`. Sudo < 1.8.28.
|
||||
|
||||
### CVE-2020-29661 — `tioscpgrp` (Jann Horn / Project Zero)
|
||||
|
||||
TTY `TIOCSPGRP` ioctl race on PTY pairs → `struct pid` UAF in
|
||||
kmalloc-256. Affects everything through Linux 5.9.13. 🟡 PRIMITIVE
|
||||
(race-driver + msg_msg groom). Public PoCs from grsecurity/spender
|
||||
+ Maxime Peterlin. `arch_support: x86_64+unverified-arm64`.
|
||||
|
||||
### CVE-2024-50264 — `vsock_uaf` (a13xp0p0v / Pwnie 2025 winner)
|
||||
|
||||
AF_VSOCK `connect()` races a POSIX signal that tears down the
|
||||
virtio_vsock_sock → UAF in kmalloc-96. **Pwn2Own 2024 + Pwnie Award
|
||||
2025 winner.** Reachable as plain unprivileged user (no userns
|
||||
required — unusual). Two public exploit paths: @v4bel + @qwerty
|
||||
kernelCTF chain (BPF JIT spray + SLUBStick) and Alexander Popov's
|
||||
msg_msg path (PT SWARM Sep 2025). 🟡 PRIMITIVE.
|
||||
`arch_support: x86_64+unverified-arm64`.
|
||||
|
||||
### CVE-2024-26581 — `nft_pipapo` (Notselwyn II, "Flipping Pages")
|
||||
|
||||
`nft_set_pipapo` destroy-race UAF. Sibling to our `nf_tables` module
|
||||
(CVE-2024-1086) — same Notselwyn "Flipping Pages" research paper,
|
||||
different specific bug in the pipapo set substrate. Same family
|
||||
detect signature. 🟡 PRIMITIVE.

## SKELETONKEY v0.8.0 — 3 new 2025/2026 CVEs
|
||||
|
||||
Closes the 2025 coverage gap. Three new modules from CVEs disclosed
|
||||
2025–2026, all with public PoC code we ported into proper
|
||||
SKELETONKEY modules:
|
||||
|
||||
### CVE-2025-32463 — `sudo_chwoot` (Stratascale)
|
||||
|
||||
Critical (CVSS 9.3) sudo logic bug: `sudo --chroot=<DIR>` chroots
|
||||
into a user-controlled directory before completing authorization +
|
||||
resolves user/group via NSS inside the chroot. Plant a malicious
|
||||
`libnss_*.so` + an `nsswitch.conf` that points to it; sudo dlopens
|
||||
the .so as root, ctor fires, root shell. Affects sudo 1.9.14 to
|
||||
1.9.17p0; fixed in 1.9.17p1 (which deprecated --chroot entirely).
|
||||
`arch_support: any` (pure userspace).
|
||||
|
||||
### CVE-2025-6019 — `udisks_libblockdev` (Qualys)
|
||||
|
||||
udisks2 + libblockdev SUID-on-mount chain. libblockdev's internal
|
||||
filesystem-resize/repair mount path omits `MS_NOSUID` and
|
||||
`MS_NODEV`. udisks2 gates the operation on polkit's
|
||||
`org.freedesktop.UDisks2.modify-device` action, which is
|
||||
`allow_active=yes` by default → any active console session user can
|
||||
trigger it without a password. Build an ext4 image with a SUID-root
|
||||
shell inside, get udisks to mount it, execute the SUID shell.
|
||||
Affects libblockdev < 3.3.1, udisks2 < 2.10.2. `arch_support: any`.
|
||||
|
||||
### CVE-2026-43494 — `pintheft` (V12 Security)
|
||||
|
||||
Linux kernel RDS zerocopy double-free. `rds_message_zcopy_from_user()`
|
||||
pins user pages one at a time; if a later page faults, the error
|
||||
unwind drops the already-pinned pages, but the msg's scatterlist
|
||||
cleanup drops them AGAIN. Each failed `sendmsg(MSG_ZEROCOPY)` leaks
|
||||
one pin refcount. Chain via io_uring fixed buffers to overwrite the
|
||||
page cache of a readable SUID binary → execve → root. Mainline fix
|
||||
commit `0cebaccef3ac` (posted to netdev 2026-05-05). Among common
|
||||
distros only **Arch Linux** autoloads the rds module — Ubuntu /
|
||||
Debian / Fedora / RHEL / Alma / Rocky / Oracle Linux either don't
|
||||
build it or blacklist autoload. `detect()` correctly returns OK
|
||||
on non-Arch hosts (RDS unreachable from userland). 🟡 PRIMITIVE
|
||||
status: primitive fires; full cred-overwrite via the shared
|
||||
modprobe_path finisher requires `--full-chain` on x86_64.

CISA KEV CSV fetch (Python's urlopen was hitting timeouts against
|
||||
CISA's HTTP/2 endpoint).
|
||||
- `tools/verify-vm/targets.yaml` — entries for the 3 new modules

|
||||

|

* mutagen_astronomy_cve_2018_14634 — SKELETONKEY module
|
||||
*
|
||||
* STATUS: 🟡 PRIMITIVE. detect() is honest about a complex bug class
|
||||
* (kernel-version range + RLIMIT_STACK check + readable SUID
|
||||
* carrier). exploit() carries the Qualys trigger shape (huge
|
||||
* argv/envp blob → integer overflow in create_elf_tables() →
|
||||
* stack/heap clobber on the next execve of a SUID binary), then
|
||||
* returns EXPLOIT_FAIL unless --full-chain is set on x86_64.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The bug (Qualys Research Labs, September 2018):
|
||||
* create_elf_tables() in fs/binfmt_elf.c uses a signed `int` to
|
||||
* compute the size of argv/envp + auxiliary vector that gets
|
||||
* copied onto the new process's stack during execve(). On 64-bit
|
||||
* systems, an attacker can construct a multi-gigabyte argv+envp
|
||||
* so the int math wraps to a small positive value, the kernel
|
||||
* under-allocates, then memcpy()s GiB of attacker bytes off the
|
||||
* end of the stack and into adjacent kernel-side allocations.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The classic exploitation path: drive the wrap, execve() a
|
||||
* readable SUID-root binary (su / pkexec / sudo) with the giant
|
||||
* argv, the SUID binary's process image gets corrupted before its
|
||||
* first instruction runs → ROP gadget chain → root.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Discovered + publicly exploited by Qualys. Affects Linux
|
||||
* 2.6.x, 3.10.x, and 4.14.x lines on RedHat / CentOS / Debian
|
||||
* x86_64. Recently CISA-KEV'd (added 2026-01-26) despite its age
|
||||
* because legacy/EOL fleets are still running affected kernels.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Affects: Linux kernels with the `int`-typed argv-size computation
|
||||
* in create_elf_tables() — pre-fix. Mainline fix landed in
|
||||
* September 2018 across 2.6, 3.10, and 4.14 stable branches.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Preconditions:
|
||||
* - Vulnerable kernel (see kernel_range below)
|
||||
* - x86_64 (the int-wrap math only works at 64-bit)
|
||||
* - RLIMIT_STACK can be set unlimited or to a large value by the
|
||||
* unprivileged user (default true on most distros)
|
||||
* - Readable SUID-root binary as the carrier
|
||||
*
|
||||
* arch_support: x86_64+unverified-arm64. The Qualys PoC is x86_64-
|
||||
* only; arm64 has similar argv size math but the exploit chain
|
||||
* uses x86-specific gadgets.

/*
|

* nft_pipapo_cve_2024_26581 — SKELETONKEY module
|
||||
*
|
||||
* STATUS: 🟡 PRIMITIVE. nfnetlink batch + msg_msg cross-cache groom.
|
||||
* Sibling to nf_tables (CVE-2024-1086) — same Notselwyn "Flipping
|
||||
* Pages" paper, same pipapo set substrate. Full cred-overwrite via
|
||||
* the shared modprobe_path finisher on --full-chain (x86_64).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The bug (Notselwyn / Mauro Lima, "Flipping Pages" Feb 2024):
|
||||
* nft_pipapo_destroy() in net/netfilter/nft_set_pipapo.c didn't
|
||||
* properly drain the per-CPU walk state when destroying a pipapo
|
||||
* set. Combined with concurrent SETELEM operations, an attacker
|
||||
* can free elements while another CPU still has references, then
|
||||
* spray msg_msg to refill the freed slabs and pivot through the
|
||||
* walk callbacks → arb R/W → cred overwrite.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* This is the SECOND major bug in the Notselwyn / 'Flipping Pages'
|
||||
* research series (the first, CVE-2024-1086, is our nf_tables
|
||||
* module). Both target the pipapo set type used for IP/port matches.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Public PoC: not yet released by Notselwyn (responsible
|
||||
* disclosure window), but extensive technical writeup at the
|
||||
* pwning.tech blog. Patch landed pre-disclosure.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Affects: Linux kernels with CONFIG_NF_TABLES + the pipapo set
|
||||
* type (introduced kernel 5.6). Fix commit 2ee52ae94baa
|
||||
* ("netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: walk over current view on
|
||||
* netlink dump") landed in 6.8-rc + stable backports:
|
||||
* 6.7.x : 6.7.4
|
||||
* 6.6.x : 6.6.16
|
||||
* 6.1.x : 6.1.78
|
||||
* 5.15.x : 5.15.149
|
||||
* 5.10.x : 5.10.210
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Preconditions:
|
||||
* - unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWNET) for unprivileged userns
|
||||
* CAP_NET_ADMIN (same as nf_tables)
|
||||
* - msgsnd / SysV IPC for kmalloc-cg-96 / kmalloc-cg-512 spray
|
||||
*
|
||||
* arch_support: x86_64+unverified-arm64. Same family as nf_tables.

* pintheft_cve_2026_43494 — SKELETONKEY module
|
||||
*
|
||||
* STATUS: 🟡 PRIMITIVE. detect() is exhaustive (kernel range + RDS
|
||||
* module reachability + io_uring availability + readable SUID
|
||||
* carrier). exploit() carries the V12 trigger shape — failed
|
||||
* rds_message_zcopy_from_user() to steal a page refcount, then
|
||||
* io_uring fixed-buffer write to land bytes in the page cache of
|
||||
* the carrier. The cred-overwrite step (turning the page-cache
|
||||
* write into root) is x86_64-specific and uses the shared
|
||||
* modprobe_path finisher when --full-chain is set.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The bug (Aaron Esau, V12 Security, disclosed May 2026):
|
||||
* Linux's RDS (Reliable Datagram Sockets) zerocopy send path pins
|
||||
* user pages one at a time. If a later page faults, the error
|
||||
* path drops the pages it already pinned. The msg cleanup then
|
||||
* drops them AGAIN because the scatterlist entries and entry count
|
||||
* are left live after the zcopy notifier is cleared. Each failed
|
||||
* zerocopy send steals one reference from the first page.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* With a sufficient pinned-page leak, an io_uring fixed buffer
|
||||
* referencing the same page persists past the page being recycled
|
||||
* into the page cache for a readable file (e.g. /usr/bin/su).
|
||||
* A subsequent io_uring write to that fixed buffer lands attacker
|
||||
* bytes into the SUID binary's page cache → execve it → root.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Public PoC (Arch Linux x86_64):
|
||||
* https://github.com/v12-security/pocs/tree/main/pintheft
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Affects: Linux kernels with CONFIG_RDS and the RDS module loaded,
|
||||
* below the fix commit (`0cebaccef3ac`, posted to netdev list
|
||||
* 2026-05-05; not yet in mainline release as of this build).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Among commonly-shipped distros, only Arch Linux autoloads RDS.
|
||||
* Ubuntu / Debian / Fedora / RHEL / Alma / Rocky / Oracle Linux
|
||||
* either don't build the module or blacklist it from autoloading
|
||||
* (mitigation: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rds.conf).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* detect() checks both kernel version AND the RDS module's
|
||||
* reachability via socket(AF_RDS, ...). If RDS is built-in but
|
||||
* not autoloaded, the socket() call triggers modprobe; this is
|
||||
* the same probe used by Ubuntu's mitigation advisory.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Preconditions:
|
||||
* - CONFIG_RDS=y or =m + module actually loadable
|
||||
* - io_uring available (CONFIG_IO_URING + sysctl
|
||||
* kernel.io_uring_disabled != 2)
|
||||
* - A readable setuid-root carrier binary (canonically
|
||||
* /usr/bin/su; falls back to /usr/bin/pkexec, /usr/bin/passwd)
|
||||
* - x86_64 for the exploit() body (the V12 PoC's cred-overwrite
|
||||
* gadgets are x86-specific); detect() is arch-agnostic.

* Cleanup runs entry-count drops a SECOND time → page 0

* alive across the page recycling into the page cache for a

* 6. mmap the SUID carrier, force its page into cache, get the

* STATUS: 🟢 STRUCTURAL ESCAPE. No offsets, no leaks, no race.
|
||||
* Pure logic: sudo's --chroot option resolves NSS lookups (user/group
|

* db) AGAINST the chroot, while still running as root. A user-writable
|
||||
* chroot dir + a planted libnss_*.so + a planted nsswitch.conf yields

* "load arbitrary shared object as root, ctor runs, root shell."
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The bug (Rich Mirch, Stratascale, June 2025):
|
||||
* `sudo --chroot=<DIR>` chroots into DIR before parsing sudoers and
|
||||
* resolving the invoking user. Inside the chroot, NSS reads
|
||||
* /etc/nsswitch.conf and dlopen()s the listed libnss_*.so backends.
|
||||
* The chroot is user-controlled. Plant:
|
||||
* <DIR>/etc/nsswitch.conf → "passwd: skeletonkey"
|
||||
* <DIR>/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnss_skeletonkey.so.2 → attacker .so
|
||||
* sudo dlopen()s the .so as root; its ctor execs /bin/bash with the

* real uid set to 0.
|

* https://github.com/kh4sh3i/CVE-2025-32463

* https://github.com/MohamedKarrab/CVE-2025-32463
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Affects: sudo 1.9.14 ≤ V ≤ 1.9.17 (introduced when sudo gained the

* CVSS 9.3 (Critical). Doesn't require any sudoers grant — the chroot

|

* sudo_runas_neg1_cve_2019_14287 — SKELETONKEY module
|
||||
*
|
||||
* STATUS: 🟢 STRUCTURAL ESCAPE. Pure logic bug. No offsets, no race.
|
||||
* `sudo -u#-1 <cmd>` parses `-1` as uid_t (unsigned) → wraps to
|
||||
* 0xFFFFFFFF → sudo's setresuid() path treats it as "match any
|
||||
* uid" and converts to 0 → runs <cmd> as root, even when sudoers
|
||||
* explicitly says "ALL except root".
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The bug (Joe Vennix / Apple Information Security, October 2019):
|
||||
* sudoers grammar lets admins write rules like
|
||||
* bob ALL=(ALL,!root) /bin/vi
|
||||
* intending "bob can run vi as any user except root". The Runas
|
||||
* user is specified at invocation via `-u <user>` or `-u#<uid>`.
|
||||
* The integer parser for `-u#<n>` does NOT validate negative
|
||||
* numbers; passing `-u#-1` (or its unsigned-32-bit form
|
||||
* `-u#4294967295`) bypasses the explicit `!root` blacklist and
|
||||
* ALSO bypasses standard setresuid() because the kernel rejects
|
||||
* uid_t = -1 and falls back to keeping the current uid (which sudo
|
||||
* has already elevated to root for argument parsing).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Discovered by Joe Vennix. Public PoC: exploit-db #47502.
|
||||
* https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/47502
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Affects: sudo < 1.8.28. Fixed by adding a positive-number check
|
||||
* to the `-u#<n>` parser.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Preconditions:
|
||||
* - sudo installed + suid
|
||||
* - The invoking user has a sudoers entry of the form
|
||||
* USER HOST=(ALL,!root) /path/to/cmd
|
||||
* or any sudoers entry with `(ALL` in the Runas spec that
|
||||
* blacklists root. WITHOUT such an entry the bug is irrelevant
|
||||
* because the user has no sudoers grant to abuse in the first
|
||||
* place — detect() short-circuits PRECOND_FAIL in that case.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* arch_support: any. Pure shell-level invocation; works identically
|
||||
* on every Linux arch sudo is built for.

/*
|

* udisks_libblockdev_cve_2025_6019 — SKELETONKEY module
|
||||
*
|
||||
* STATUS: 🟢 STRUCTURAL ESCAPE via polkit allow_active chain. No
|
||||
* offsets, no leaks, no race. Two cooperating logic bugs in udisks2
|
||||
* + libblockdev let any console/session user (polkit allow_active=true)
|
||||
* mount an attacker-built filesystem image WITHOUT nosuid/nodev, then
|
||||
* execute the SUID-root binary it contains.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The bug (Qualys, June 2025):
|
||||
* libblockdev's bd_fs_resize / bd_fs_repair code paths mount the
|
||||
* target filesystem internally so they can call resize2fs / xfs_growfs.
|
||||
* The mount is performed WITHOUT MS_NOSUID and MS_NODEV. udisks2
|
||||
* exposes Resize() over D-Bus and gates it on polkit's
|
||||
* org.freedesktop.UDisks2.modify-device action, which by default
|
||||
* allow_active=yes (i.e. any logged-in console user can call it
|
||||
* without a password).
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Trigger:
|
||||
* 1. Build an ext4 image with a setuid-root /bin/sh inside.
|
||||
* 2. Attach as a loop device via udisks LoopSetup() over D-Bus.
|
||||
* 3. Call Filesystem.Resize() — udisks invokes libblockdev which
|
||||
* mounts the image at /run/media/<user>/<label> with neither
|
||||
* nosuid nor nodev applied.
|
||||
* 4. Execute /run/media/<user>/<label>/bin/sh — runs as root.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Discovered by the Qualys Threat Research Unit. Affects udisks2
|
||||
* 2.10.x (and likely earlier) + libblockdev 3.x on Fedora, openSUSE,
|
||||
* Ubuntu, Debian. Public PoCs:
|
||||
* https://blog.securelayer7.net/cve-2025-6019-local-privilege-escalation/
|
||||
* https://intruceptlabs.com/2025/07/linux-local-privilege-escalation-via-udisksd-and-libblockdev-cve-2025-6019-poc-released/
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Affects: libblockdev < 3.3.1, udisks2 < 2.10.2 (Qualys advisory).
|
||||
* Patched upstream by adding MS_NOSUID|MS_NODEV to libblockdev's
|
||||
* internal mount paths.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* CVSS 7.0 (HIGH). Requires:
|
||||
* - udisks2 daemon running (default on most desktop distros)
|
||||
* - polkit allow_active=yes on the resize action (default)
|
||||
* - The invoking user must be in an active local session per polkit
|
||||
* (loginctl shows them as 'Active'). Pure SSH users are NOT active
|
||||
* by default; CI / serverless / headless usually fails this gate.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* arch_support: any. The SUID payload inside the loopback image is
|
||||
* /bin/sh copied from the host, so it inherits the host's architecture.

/*
|

* vsock_uaf_cve_2024_50264 — SKELETONKEY module
|
||||
*
|
||||
* STATUS: 🟡 PRIMITIVE. Race-driver + msg_msg groom on kmalloc-96
|
||||
* (the bucket where struct virtio_vsock_sock at 80 bytes lives).
|
||||
* Full cred-overwrite via the V12 / @v4bel + @qwerty msg_msg path
|
||||
* from the PT SWARM writeup is documented but not bundled here;
|
||||
* --full-chain falls through to the shared finisher on x86_64.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The bug (Original bug since Aug 2016; weaponized publicly 2024 →
|
||||
* Pwn2Own + Pwnie Award 2025 winner):
|
||||
* AF_VSOCK's `connect()` system call races with a POSIX signal
|
||||
* that interrupts the connect path. The signal handler tears down
|
||||
* the virtio_vsock_sock object while connect() still holds a
|
||||
* reference; subsequent connect-completion writes UAF the freed
|
||||
* slot. virtio_vsock_sock is 80 bytes → kmalloc-96 slab.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Two known exploitation strategies:
|
||||
* (a) Original @v4bel + @qwerty kernelCTF path:
|
||||
* BPF-JIT spray to fill physical memory + SLUBStick →
|
||||
* page-grained primitive → cred overwrite.
|
||||
* (b) Alexander Popov (PT SWARM) msg_msg path:
|
||||
* msg_msg kmalloc-96 groom + UAF write into a forged
|
||||
* msg_msg header → arb read/write primitive → cred overwrite.
|
||||
* Doesn't need BPF JIT enabled; works on hardened distros.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Notable: bug is reachable as a PLAIN UNPRIVILEGED USER — no
|
||||
* userns required. Most kernel-UAF chains need userns for the
|
||||
* spray, so this is unusually broadly exploitable.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Affects: Linux kernels with CONFIG_VSOCKETS + CONFIG_VIRTIO_VSOCKETS
|
||||
* below the fix. The bug has existed since the AF_VSOCK signal-
|
||||
* interrupt code was added in 2016 (commit b91ee4aabbe2). Fix
|
||||
* commit ad8e1afecc3a (mainline Nov 2024). Stable backports:
|
||||
* 6.6.x : 6.6.59 (LTS)
|
||||
* 6.1.x : 6.1.115
|
||||
* 5.15.x : 5.15.170
|
||||
* 5.10.x : 5.10.228
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Preconditions:
|
||||
* - socket(AF_VSOCK, ...) must work — requires vsock module
|
||||
* loaded (autoloaded on KVM/QEMU guests; absent on bare-metal
|
||||
* hosts without virtualization)
|
||||
* - msgsnd / SysV IPC for kmalloc-96 spray
|
||||
* - POSIX timers for the signal-interrupt portion
|
||||
*
|
||||
* arch_support: x86_64+unverified-arm64. The bug + race are arch-
|
||||
* agnostic; the cred-overwrite chains in both published PoCs use
|
||||
* x86_64-specific kernel offsets.
