CVE-2025-40359: perf/x86/intel: Fix KASAN global-out-of-bounds warning

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.19% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 0ba6502ce167fc3d598c08c2cc3b4ed7ca5aa251, 1b61a1da3d8105ea1be548c94c2856697eb7ffd1, 710a72e81a7028e1ad1a10eb14f941f8dd45ffd3.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 0ba6502ce167fc3d598c08c2cc3b4ed7ca5aa251, 1b61a1da3d8105ea1be548c94c2856697eb7ffd1, 710a72e81a7028e1ad1a10eb14f941f8dd45ffd3 or later.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/intel: Fix KASAN global-out-of-bounds warning When running "perf mem record" command on CWF, the below KASAN global-out-of-bounds warning is seen. ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in cmt_latency_data+0x176/0x1b0 Read of size 4 at addr ffffffffb721d000 by task dtlb/9850 Call Trace: kasan_report+0xb8/0xf0 cmt_latency_data+0x176/0x1b0 setup_arch_pebs_sample_data+0xf49/0x2560 intel_pmu_drain_arch_pebs+0x577/0xb00 handle_pmi_common+0x6c4/0xc80 The issue is caused by below code in __grt_latency_data(). The code tries to access x86_hybrid_pmu structure which doesn't exist on non-hybrid platform like CWF. WARN_ON_ONCE(hybrid_pmu(event->pmu)->pmu_type == hybrid_big) So add is_hybrid() check before calling this WARN_ON_ONCE to fix the global-out-of-bounds access issue.

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

EPSS, last 120 days

FIRST EPSS daily score; only changes of 0.01 or more are recorded (step chart).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No commit or PR link among the references.

Credits

All researchers

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
