  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nvsock/virtio: avoid refilling the RX queue after teardown\n\nCommit b917507e5ad9 (\"vsock/virtio: stop workers during the .remove()\")\nmade the RX worker jump to its common exit when rx_run is clear.  That\nexit still refills the RX queue when the buffer count is low, so work\nqueued across virtio_vsock_vqs_del() can add buffers after the virtqueues\nhave been deleted.\n\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in virtqueue_add_sgs\nRead of size 4 by task kworker/0:1\nWorkqueue: virtio_vsock virtio_transport_rx_work\nCall Trace:\n virtqueue_add_sgs (drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c:2796)\n virtio_vsock_rx_fill (net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport.c:332)\n virtio_transport_rx_work (net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport.c:701)\n process_one_work (kernel/workqueue.c:3314)\n worker_thread (kernel/workqueue.c:3478)\n kthread (kernel/kthread.c:436)\n ret_from_fork (arch/x86/kernel/process.c:158)\n ret_from_fork_asm (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:245)\n...\nFreed by task 141:\n kfree (mm/slub.c:6566)\n vp_del_vq (drivers/virtio/virtio_pci_common.c:259)\n vp_del_vqs (drivers/virtio/virtio_pci_common.c:285)\n virtio_vsock_freeze (net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport.c:912)\n virtio_device_freeze (drivers/virtio/virtio.c:658)\n virtio_pci_freeze (drivers/virtio/virtio_pci_common.c:601)\n pci_pm_freeze (drivers/pci/pci-driver.c:1098)\n device_suspend (drivers/base/power/main.c:1968)\nKernel panic - not syncing: KASAN: panic_on_warn set ...\n\nJump to a no-refill exit when rx_run is clear, leaving the normal exit\nto replenish a running queue.",

      "scenario": "AV:L - The bug is in the virtio-vsock guest driver reached via AF_VSOCK sockets and virtio virtqueue callbacks, not via remote network packets; kernel guidance classifies vsock as Local attack vector.\nAC:L - An attacker can reliably queue virtio_transport_rx_work by maintaining active vsock traffic while virtqueues are torn down; this slab UAF race is attacker-influenced and does not depend on uncontrollable memory layout.\nPR:L - Triggering the vulnerable RX refill path requires only normal unprivileged AF_VSOCK use to drive virtio RX work; teardown can coincide with host-driven suspend, migration, or device removal without guest root.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires no victim interaction beyond the attacker opening and using vsock sockets to generate virtio RX work during device teardown.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts guest-kernel virtio state and can panic the guest kernel; it does not directly cross a VM/host security boundary or enable guest-to-host escape.\nC:H - KASAN reports a slab use-after-free read in virtqueue_add_sgs on freed virtqueue metadata; UAF of kernel heap objects can be leveraged for arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - Use-after-free of virtqueue structures during virtio_vsock_rx_fill enables heap corruption and can be developed into arbitrary kernel writes or control-flow hijack, not merely a benign read.\nA:H - The reported reproducer triggers KASAN slab-use-after-free and kernel panic during virtio_vsock freeze/teardown; UAF in kernel workqueue context causes high availability impact."
