A\ncount close to U32_MAX makes the sum wrap to a small value, the guard\npasses, and the inner loop then walks sets.table[++i] past the end of\nthe kcalloc(size, sizeof(u32)) allocation.\n\nNote that sets.size is bounded by 65535, because unpack_tagsets() reads\nit with aa_unpack_array() as a u16, so the wrap cannot be reached by\ngrowing the table; it is reached purely through the attacker-supplied\ncount.\n\nWith sets.size = 2 and sets.table = { 0, 0xffffffff }:\n\n  i = 0: cnt = 0, guard 0 + 0 >= 2 is false, inner loop does not run\n  i = 1: cnt = 0xffffffff, guard (1 + 0xffffffff) mod 2^32 == 0 >= 2 is\n         false, so the guard is bypassed and the inner loop reads\n         sets.table[2] -- one element past a two element allocation\n\nThe walk continues until an out-of-bounds value happens to be >=\nhdrs.size or the access faults, so a crafted policy yields an\nout-of-bounds read on the policy load path\n(aa_replace_profiles -> aa_unpack -> unpack_policydb -> unpack_tags ->\nverify_tags).  unpack_tags() runs before the perms and DFA tables are\nunpacked, so no other table needs to be well formed to reach it.\n\nPolicy load is gated by aa_may_manage_policy(), which checks\nCAP_MAC_ADMIN relative to the subject's own user namespace rather than\nthe init user namespace, so with the default\nunprivileged_userns_apparmor_policy=1 the path is reachable from an\nunprivileged task in a matched-level nested namespace, not only by a\nglobally privileged one.\n\nPerform the addition in u64 so that it cannot wrap, restoring the\nintended i + cnt < sets.size guarantee.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-09-17T16:07:48.524+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T09:00:22.097+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"product\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n                    \"programFiles\": [\n                        \"security/apparmor/policy_unpack.c\"\n                    ],\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"3d28e2397af7a89ac3de33c686ed404cda59b5d5\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"ef79a405f83993f0fda5efde371d98433f7d7a47\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"3d28e2397af7a89ac3de33c686ed404cda59b5d5\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"465946d3c560c0137e6a180ba054dddc4d049f5a\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"product\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n                    \"programFiles\": [\n                        \"security/apparmor/policy_unpack.c\"\n                    ],\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"7.0\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.2.6\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"7.2.*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.3\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","score":7.1,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ef79a405f83993f0fda5efde371d98433f7d7a47","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/465946d3c560c0137e6a180ba054dddc4d049f5a"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-90246","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-90246","identifiers":["CVE-2026-90246"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog;
