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

um: Fix out-of-bounds read in LDT setup

syscall_stub_data() expects the data_count parameter to be the number of longs, not bytes.

================================================================== BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in syscall_stub_data+0x70/0xe0 Read of size 128 at addr 000000006411f6f0 by task swapper/1

CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper Not tainted 5.18.0+ #18 Call Trace: show_stack.cold+0x166/0x2a7 __dump_stack+0x3a/0x43 dump_stack_lvl+0x1f/0x27 print_report.cold+0xdb/0xf81 kasan_report+0x119/0x1f0 kasan_check_range+0x3a3/0x440 memcpy+0x52/0x140 syscall_stub_data+0x70/0xe0 write_ldt_entry+0xac/0x190 init_new_ldt+0x515/0x960 init_new_context+0x2c4/0x4d0 mm_init.constprop.0+0x5ed/0x760 mm_alloc+0x118/0x170 0x60033f48 do_one_initcall+0x1d7/0x860 0x60003e7b kernel_init+0x6e/0x3d4 new_thread_handler+0x1e7/0x2c0

The buggy address belongs to stack of task swapper/1 and is located at offset 64 in frame: init_new_ldt+0x0/0x960

This frame has 2 objects: [32, 40) addr [64, 80) desc
