Vulnerability Assessment

Exploitation Conditions	Attacker requires low-privilege local user access to the Linux kernel with ARM64 architecture. The BPF JIT compiler must be enabled. Exploitation occurs during BPF program loading/execution without requiring victim interaction.
Exploit ScenarioDerived	An unprivileged local attacker loads a crafted BPF program via the bpf() syscall. The ARM64 JIT compiler allocates a buffer with insufficient 8-byte alignment, causing the u64 target field to span cache line boundaries. The attacker exploits atomic tearing to corrupt kernel state and gain root privileges.

AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 25, 2026

This vulnerability affects the Linux kernel's ARM64 BPF JIT compiler, where insufficient alignment requirements (4 bytes instead of 8 bytes) for the JIT buffer cause the bpf_plt structure's u64 target field to be misaligned. This misalignment creates two critical issues: UBSAN generates warnings for undefined behavior, and more dangerously, concurrent updates to the target field via WRITE_ONCE() in bpf_arch_text_poke() can result in torn 64-bit reads on ARM64 systems, causing the JIT to jump to corrupted addresses. Linux kernel versions using ARM64 BPF JIT are affected, and while there is no public exploit code available, this represents a memory corruption vulnerability that could lead to privilege escalation or denial of service. Multiple stable kernel patches are available addressing this issue.

DescriptionCVE.org

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

bpf, arm64: Force 8-byte alignment for JIT buffer to prevent atomic tearing

struct bpf_plt contains a u64 target field. Currently, the BPF JIT allocator requests an alignment of 4 bytes (sizeof(u32)) for the JIT buffer.

Because the base address of the JIT buffer can be 4-byte aligned (e.g., ending in 0x4 or 0xc), the relative padding logic in build_plt() fails to ensure that target lands on an 8-byte boundary.

This leads to two issues:

UBSAN reports misaligned-access warnings when dereferencing the

structure.

More critically, target is updated concurrently via WRITE_ONCE() in

bpf_arch_text_poke() while the JIT'd code executes ldr. On arm64, 64-bit loads/stores are only guaranteed to be single-copy atomic if they are 64-bit aligned. A misaligned target risks a torn read, causing the JIT to jump to a corrupted address.

Fix this by increasing the allocation alignment requirement to 8 bytes (sizeof(u64)) in bpf_jit_binary_pack_alloc(). This anchors the base of the JIT buffer to an 8-byte boundary, allowing the relative padding math in build_plt() to correctly align the target field.
