Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-12-16 14:06:16 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

riscv: stacktrace: Disable KASAN checks for non-current tasks

Unwinding the stack of a task other than current, KASAN would report
"BUG: KASAN: out-of-bounds in walk_stackframe+0x41c/0x460"

There is a same issue on x86 and has been resolved by the commit
84936118bdf3 ("x86/unwind: Disable KASAN checks for non-current tasks")
The solution could be applied to RISC-V too.
