Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-10-15 08:01:48 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tracing/osnoise: Fix slab-out-of-bounds in _parse_integer_limit()

When config osnoise cpus by write() syscall, the following KASAN splat may
be observed:

This issue can be reproduced by below code:

const char *cpulist = "1";
int fd=open("/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/osnoise/cpus", O_WRONLY);
write(fd, cpulist, strlen(cpulist));

Function bitmap_parselist() was called to parse cpulist, it require that
the parameter 'buf' must be terminated with a '\0' or '\n'. Fix this issue
by adding a '\0' to 'buf' in osnoise_cpus_write().
