AnalysisCVE.org

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ARM: 9481/2: breakpoint: CFI breakpoints only on demand

This removes the stub hw_breakpoint_cfi_handler() from ARM, making it not steal breakpoint type 0x03 (ARM_ENTRY_CFI_BREAKPOINT) unless CFI is actively used in the kernel.

When not instrumenting with CFI, or when a breakpoint is issued in userspace, we fall through to return 1 from hw_breakpoint_pending() "unhandled fault" so userspace can make use of this breakpoint.

Tested with LKDTM and this command line: echo CFI_FORWARD_PROTO > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT still works as expected.

What every action level means
Emergency Immediate action required. Criteria: CRITICAL + in CISA KEV (actively exploited) without patch, OR CRITICAL + EPSS > 30% without patch, OR CRITICAL + active threat signals without patch.
Act Now Prioritize within 24-48h. Criteria: in KEV with patch available, OR CRITICAL + public POC, OR HIGH + EPSS > 10%, OR CRITICAL + active threat, OR any CRITICAL severity.
This Week Schedule remediation this week. Criteria: HIGH severity (CVSS 7.0-8.9). Patch within normal change window.
This Month Plan within 30 days. Criteria: MEDIUM severity (CVSS 4.0-6.9), lower exploitation probability. Include in regular patch cycle.
Monitor Track and reassess. Criteria: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9), minimal exploitation risk. No immediate action needed.
