v0.3.1: --dump-offsets tool + NOTICE.md per module
The README has been claiming "each module credits the original CVE
reporter and PoC author in its NOTICE.md" since v0.1.0, but only
copy_fail_family actually shipped one. Fixed.

  modules/<name>/NOTICE.md (×19 new + 1 existing): per-module
    research credit covering CVE ID, discoverer, original advisory
    URL where public, upstream fix commit, IAMROOT's role.

  iamroot.c: new --dump-offsets subcommand. Resolves kernel offsets
    via the existing core/offsets.c four-source chain (env →
    /proc/kallsyms → /boot/System.map → embedded table), then emits
    a ready-to-paste C struct entry for kernel_table[]. Run once
    as root on a target kernel build; upstream via PR. Eliminates
    fabricating offsets — every shipped entry traces back to a
    `iamroot --dump-offsets` invocation on a real kernel.

  docs/OFFSETS.md: documents the --dump-offsets workflow.
  CVES.md: notes the NOTICE.md convention + offset dump tool.

  iamroot.c: bump IAMROOT_VERSION 0.3.0 → 0.3.1.

NOTICE — fuse_legacy (CVE-2022-0185)

Vulnerability

CVE-2022-0185legacy_parse_param in fsconfig() doesn't validate PAGE_SIZE against the running fs_context's key/value length → 4 KB heap OOB write → cross-cache UAF → cred overwrite from a rootless container.

Research credit

Discovered and disclosed by William Liu + Jamie Hill-Daniel (Crusaders of Rust), January 2022.

Original writeup: https://www.willsroot.io/2022/01/cve-2022-0185.html Public PoC: https://github.com/Crusaders-of-Rust/CVE-2022-0185

Upstream fix: mainline 5.16.2 (Jan 2022). Branch backports: 5.16.2 / 5.15.14 / 5.10.91 / 5.4.171.

IAMROOT role

userns+mountns reach, fsopen("cgroup2") + double fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", ...) fires the 4k OOB, msg_msg cross-cache groom in kmalloc-4k. MSG_COPY read-back detects whether the OOB landed in an adjacent neighbour — the sanity gate that prevents fake-success claims.

--full-chain extends with forged m_list/m_ts overflow toward modprobe_path via the shared finisher.

Container-escape angle — relevant to rootless docker/podman/snap.
