CVE-2025-71102

VendorlinuxProductlinux kernelDiscoveredJan 14, 2026UpdatedMar 25, 2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scs: fix a wrong parameter in __scs_magic __scs_magic() needs a 'void *' variable, but a 'struct task_struct *' is given. 'task_scs(tsk)' is the starting address of the task's shadow call stack, and '__scs_magic(task_scs(tsk))' is the end address of the task's shadow call stack. Here should be '__scs_magic(task_scs(tsk))'. The user-visible effect of this bug is that when CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE is enabled, the shadow call stack usage checking function (scs_check_usage) would scan an incorrect memory range. This could lead 1. Inaccurate stack usage reporting: The function would calculate wrong usage statistics for the shadow call stack, potentially showing incorrect value in kmsg. 2. Potential kernel crash: If the value…
