KaraZajac	03324c8542	modules: add ghostlock (CVE-2026-43499, "GhostLock" rtmutex/futex requeue-PI stack UAF) ... Adds the ghostlock module for CVE-2026-43499 ("GhostLock", VEGA / Nebula Security's "IonStack part II") — a ~15-year race UAF on kernel STACK memory in the rtmutex/futex requeue-PI path (kernel/locking/rtmutex.c). On the -EDEADLK deadlock-rollback, remove_waiter() runs against `current` instead of the waiter task, so a concurrent sched_setattr()-driven PI-chain priority walk on another CPU clears pi_blocked_on on the wrong task and leaves an on-stack rt_mutex_waiter dangling. Reachable by any unprivileged user (CVSS 7.8, PR:L) — plain futex(2) + sched_setattr(2), no userns/CONFIG beyond CONFIG_FUTEX_PI. The corpus's first rtmutex/futex-PI module and first kernel-stack UAF (all others are heap/slab). Introduced 2.6.39; fixed 3bfdc63936dd (7.1-rc1), stable backports 7.0.4 / 6.18.27 / 6.12.86 / 6.6.140 / 6.1.175; 5.15/5.10/5.4/4.19 affected with no upstream fix. CWE-416; not in KEV. detect() is a pure version gate over the five-branch backport table. exploit() forks an isolated child that (A) deterministically confirms the -EDEADLK remove_waiter() rollback path is reachable (safe — no concurrent walk means no dangling pointer; validated on real hardware) then (B) exercises the actual race a hard-bounded 24 iters / 2s with a sibling-CPU sched_setattr(SCHED_BATCH) storm, and stops. Deliberately under-driven: no copy_from_user widening, no stack-frame spray/reoccupation, and the KernelSnitch leak -> forged-waiter -> fops/ashmem/pipe R/W -> cred-patch chain (Android/Pixel-specific, per-build offsets) is NOT bundled. Returns EXPLOIT_FAIL. Lowest --auto safety rank (11) — a won race corrupts the kernel stack. Unlike most races it ships a real detection signature (futex requeue-PI returning EDEADLK + sibling sched_setattr); auditd/sigma anchor on sched_setattr, falco/eBPF on the EDEADLK tell; no yara. Wired: registry, Makefile, safety rank 11, version 0.9.13, 9 detect() test rows (incl. 6.13.0 -> VULNERABLE, the multi-branch "newer than all" case), CVE metadata (CWE-416 / T1068 / not-KEV; cve_metadata.c + KEV_CROSSREF.md regenerated -> 13 of 40), README + CVES.md + website counts (45 modules / 40 CVEs), RELEASE_NOTES v0.9.13, verify-vm target. Also corrects pre-existing docs/index.html drift left by v0.9.12 (body counts stuck at 43/38 and a missing bad_epoll corpus pill). Tests: 33 kernel_range + 101 detect, all pass.

KaraZajac	95589e26cb	modules: add bad_epoll (CVE-2026-46242, "Bad Epoll" epoll teardown race UAF) ... Jaeyoung Chung's kernelCTF "Bad Epoll": a race-condition use-after-free in fs/eventpoll.c. ep_remove() clears file->f_ep under f_lock but keeps using the file (hlist_del_rcu + unlock) while a concurrent __fput() frees the still-referenced struct eventpoll. Reachable by any unprivileged user with no userns / CONFIG / capability; weaponised via cross-cache to a struct file, /proc/self/fdinfo arb-read, and ROP. Introduced 58c9b016e128 (6.4), fixed a6dc643c6931 (7.1-rc1), stable backport 7.0.13. CWE-416; not in KEV. The corpus's first epoll / VFS-teardown module. Shipped as a reconstructed, deliberately under-driven trigger on the stackrot / nft_catchall contract: detect() is a pure version gate (>= 6.4 and below the on-branch fix; no userns precondition -- epoll needs none); exploit() forks a CPU-pinned child that exercises the ep_remove-vs-__fput close window a hard-bounded 48 attempts / 2s and returns EXPLOIT_FAIL. It does not grind the race to a win, does not do the cross-cache reclaim, and does not bundle the fdinfo R/W + ROP (a won race frees a live struct file and rarely trips KASAN -> silent-corruption risk). Wired: registry, Makefile, safety rank (12 -- lowest in the corpus; a kernel race is the least predictable class), 5 detect() test rows (version gating), CVE metadata (sorted insert, CWE-416 / T1068 / not-KEV), README + CVES.md + website counts (44/39), RELEASE_NOTES v0.9.12, and a verify-vm target (sweep pending). Detection rules are intentionally weak/structural (epoll ubiquitous, rarely KASAN) -- post-exploitation euid-0 transition, no yara. Also corrects pre-existing README drift in the "not yet verified" count (8 -> 11). Not VM-verified, so the verified count stays 28 of 39. Version 0.9.12. Credit: Jaeyoung Chung (J-jaeyoung).

KaraZajac	4d0a0e2443	modules: add nft_catchall (CVE-2026-23111, nf_tables catch-all abort UAF) ... The newest nftables LPE: a use-after-free in the nf_tables transaction- abort path. An inverted condition (a stray '!') in nft_map_catchall_activate() makes the abort path process active catch-all map elements instead of skipping them; a catch-all GOTO element drives a chain's use-count to zero so a following DELCHAIN frees it while the catch-all verdict still references it -> UAF, escalatable from an unprivileged user (userns + nftables) via modprobe_path/selinux_state ROP. Fixed upstream by f41c5d1; CWE-416, CVSS 7.8; not in CISA KEV. Public reproduction by FuzzingLabs. Takes the corpus to 43 modules / 38 CVEs. 🟡 reconstructed trigger, primitive-only, NOT VM-verified — same contract as nf_tables (CVE-2024-1086). detect() version-gates (catch-all elems ~5.13; Debian backports 6.1.164/6.12.73/6.18.10, 7.0+ inherits) AND requires unprivileged user_ns clone (else PRECOND_FAIL). exploit() forks an isolated child, builds a verdict map with a catch-all GOTO element, provokes an aborting batch to drive the abort-path UAF, observes slabinfo, and returns EXPLOIT_FAIL — the per-kernel leak + R/W + modprobe_path ROP is not bundled. kernel_range table verified drift-clean against the live Debian tracker (the 6.18 branch / 6.18.10 fix is the real forky/sid backport; the earlier 7.0.10 figure was wrong). Wired: registry, Makefile, safety rank (35), 6 detect() test rows (version + userns gating), CVE_METADATA.json + cve_metadata.c + KEV_CROSSREF.md (sorted insert, CWE-416/T1068/not-KEV), README + CVES.md + website counts (43/38) + yellow pill, RELEASE_NOTES v0.9.11, verify-vm target.

KaraZajac	ada56b0db3	modules: add cifswitch (CVE-2026-46243, Asim Manizada's CIFSwitch) ... CIFSwitch is the newest kernel-7-era LPE not already in the corpus: a ~19-year-old logic flaw in fs/smb/client/cifs_spnego.c where the cifs.spnego request-key type accepts key descriptions created by userspace (add_key(2)/request_key(2)) without verifying the request came from the in-kernel CIFS client. The description's authority-bearing fields (pid/uid/creduid/upcall_target) are trusted by the root cifs.upcall helper; with user+mount namespace tricks an unprivileged user coerces cifs.upcall into loading an attacker NSS module as root. Fixed upstream by 3da1fdf4efbc (merged 7.1-rc5); CWE-20; not in CISA KEV. Takes the corpus to 42 modules / 37 CVEs. 🟡 honest port — full chain not VM-verified. detect() gates on the kernel version (Debian backports 5.10.257/6.1.174/6.12.90/7.0.10) AND on the cifs userspace path (cifs.upcall / cifs.spnego request-key rule), so a vulnerable kernel without cifs-utils is PRECOND_FAIL not a false positive (override via SKELETONKEY_CIFS_ASSUME_PRESENT=1/0). exploit() fires only the non-destructive add_key(2) cifs.spnego probe (no upcall, loads nothing, revoked immediately) and returns EXPLOIT_FAIL without a euid-0 witness — the namespace+NSS root-pop is not bundled until VM-verified. --mitigate blocklists the cifs module; --cleanup reverts. Wired everywhere: registry, Makefile, safety rank (86), 6 detect() test rows (env-driven precondition override), CVE_METADATA.json + cve_metadata.c + KEV_CROSSREF.md (sorted insert, CWE-20/T1068/not-KEV), README + CVES.md + website counts (42/37) and a yellow module pill, RELEASE_NOTES v0.9.10, verify-vm target (sweep pending).

KaraZajac	dd5f4fa06d	modules: add sudo_host (CVE-2025-32462, Stratascale sudo --host policy bypass) ... Second new module this cycle; sibling of sudo_chwoot (CVE-2025-32463, same Stratascale/Rich Mirch disclosure). sudo's -h/--host option — meant only to pair with -l/--list — was honored when running a command, so a sudoers rule scoped to a host other than the current machine (and not ALL) is usable via 'sudo -h <host> <cmd>' for local root. Affects sudo 1.8.8 -> 1.9.17p0; fixed 1.9.17p1. CWE-863, CVSS 8.8 (not in KEV). detect(): version-gate [1.8.8, 1.9.17p0] via ctx->host->sudo_version (the host-restricted rule itself isn't probeable unprivileged, so VULNERABLE means 'vulnerable sudo present'). exploit(): discovers an abusable host-restricted rule from readable sudoers (or SKELETONKEY_SUDO_HOST), witnesses with 'sudo -n -h <host> id -u', pops 'sudo -h <host> /bin/bash' (SKELETONKEY_SUDO_CMD) only on a uid-0 witness; honest EXPLOIT_FAIL + operator guidance otherwise. Shared 'sudo' family; structural, arch=any; safety rank 96. auditd/sigma/falco rules, NOTICE.md (Rich Mirch / Stratascale) + MODULE.md, 4 detect() test rows. Wiring: registry, Makefile, cve_metadata (+JSON), verify-vm/targets.yaml (ubuntu1804 sudo 1.8.21p2 target, sweep pending). Docs: README + CVES.md + docs/index.html counts 40->41 modules / 35->36 CVEs; not-yet-verified lists + corpus pill.	2026-06-02 08:43:09 -04:00
KaraZajac	bd63aabd64	modules: add ptrace_pidfd (CVE-2026-46333, Qualys ptrace/pidfd_getfd cred-steal) ... New module for Qualys's 2026-05-20 disclosure: a __ptrace_may_access logic flaw leaves a process dropping privileges briefly reachable past its dumpable boundary; pidfd_getfd(2) steals root-opened fds / authenticated channels from it. Default-distro, no userns, arch-agnostic (fd-steal, no shellcode). detect(): version-pinned, predates-gate at pidfd_getfd's 5.6 introduction; kernel_range from Debian backports (5.10.251/6.1.172/6.12.88/7.0.7), drift-check clean. exploit(): spawns a setuid victim, pidfd_open()s it, sweeps pidfd_getfd() over its fd table during the cred-drop window, reports any uid-0-owned fd captured from a non-root context. Honest EXPLOIT_FAIL without a euid-0 witness; not yet VM-verified. mitigate(): yama ptrace_scope=2; cleanup() reverts. auditd/sigma/falco rules, NOTICE.md (Qualys TRU credit) + MODULE.md, safety rank 84. Wiring: registry, Makefile, cve_metadata (+JSON source), verify-vm/targets.yaml (ubuntu2204 + mainline 5.15.5 target, sweep pending). Docs: README + CVES.md + docs/index.html counts 39->40 modules / 34->35 CVEs; added to not-yet-verified lists + corpus pill.	2026-06-02 08:26:24 -04:00
KaraZajac	d84b3b0033	release v0.9.0: 5 gap-fillers — every year 2016 → 2026 now covered ... Five new modules close the 2018 gap entirely and thicken 2019 / 2020 / 2024. All five carry the full 4-format detection-rule corpus + opsec_notes + arch_support + register helpers. CVE-2018-14634 — mutagen_astronomy (Qualys, closes 2018) create_elf_tables() int wrap → SUID-execve stack corruption. CISA KEV-listed Jan 2026 despite the bug's age; legacy RHEL 7 / CentOS 7 / Debian 8 fleets still affected. 🟡 PRIMITIVE. arch_support: x86_64+unverified-arm64. CVE-2019-14287 — sudo_runas_neg1 (Joe Vennix) sudo -u#-1 → uid_t underflow → root despite (ALL,!root) blacklist. Pure userspace logic bug; the famous Apple Information Security finding. detect() looks for a (ALL,!root) grant in sudo -ln output; PRECOND_FAIL when no such grant exists for the invoking user. arch_support: any (4 -> 5 userspace 'any' modules). CVE-2020-29661 — tioscpgrp (Jann Horn / Project Zero) TTY TIOCSPGRP ioctl race on PTY pairs → struct pid UAF in kmalloc-256. Affects everything through Linux 5.9.13. 🟡 PRIMITIVE (race-driver + msg_msg groom). Public PoCs from grsecurity / spender + Maxime Peterlin. CVE-2024-50264 — vsock_uaf (a13xp0p0v / Pwnie Award 2025 winner) AF_VSOCK connect-race UAF in kmalloc-96. Pwn2Own 2024 + Pwnie 2025 winner. Reachable as plain unprivileged user (no userns required — unusual). Two public exploit paths: @v4bel+@qwerty kernelCTF (BPF JIT spray + SLUBStick) and Alexander Popov / PT SWARM (msg_msg). 🟡 PRIMITIVE. CVE-2024-26581 — nft_pipapo (Notselwyn II, 'Flipping Pages') nft_set_pipapo destroy-race UAF. Sibling to nf_tables (CVE-2024-1086) from the same Notselwyn paper. Distinct bug in the pipapo set substrate. Same family signature. 🟡 PRIMITIVE. Plumbing changes: core/registry.h + registry_all.c — 5 new register declarations + calls. Makefile — 5 new MUT/SRN/TIO/VSK/PIP module groups in MODULE_OBJS. tests/test_detect.c — 7 new test rows covering the new modules (above-fix OK, predates-the-bug OK, sudo-no-grant PRECOND_FAIL). tools/verify-vm/targets.yaml — verifier entries for all 5 with honest 'expect_detect' values based on what Vagrant boxes can realistically reach (mutagen_astronomy gets OK on stock 18.04 since 4.15.0-213 is post-fix; sudo_runas_neg1 gets PRECOND_FAIL because no (ALL,!root) grant on default vagrant user; tioscpgrp + nft_pipapo VULNERABLE with kernel pins; vsock_uaf flagged manual because vsock module rarely available on CI runners). tools/refresh-cve-metadata.py — added curl fallback for the CISA KEV CSV fetch (urlopen times out intermittently against CISA's HTTP/2 endpoint). Corpus growth across v0.8.0 + v0.9.0: v0.7.1 v0.8.0 v0.9.0 Modules 31 34 39 Distinct CVEs 26 29 34 KEV-listed 10 10 11 (mutagen_astronomy) arch 'any' 4 6 7 (sudo_runas_neg1) Years 2016-2026: 10/11 10/11 **11/11** Year-by-year coverage: 2016: 1 2017: 1 2018: 1 2019: 2 2020: 2 2021: 5 2022: 5 2023: 8 2024: 3 2025: 2 2026: 4 CVE-2018 gap → CLOSED. Every year from 2016 through 2026 now has at least one module. Surfaces updated: - README.md: badge → 22 VM-verified / 34, Status section refreshed - docs/index.html: hero eyebrow + footer → v0.9.0, hero tagline 'every year 2016 → 2026', stats chips → 39 / 22 / 11 / 151 - docs/RELEASE_NOTES.md: v0.9.0 entry added on top with year coverage matrix + per-module breakdown; v0.8.0 + v0.7.1 entries preserved below - docs/og.svg + og.png: regenerated with new numbers + 'Every year 2016 → 2026' tagline CVE metadata refresh (tools/refresh-cve-metadata.py) deferred to follow-up — CISA KEV CSV + NVD CVE API were timing out during the v0.9.0 push window. The 5 new CVEs will return NULL from cve_metadata_lookup() until the refresh runs (—module-info simply skips the WEAKNESS/THREAT INTEL header for them; no functional impact). Re-run 'tools/refresh-cve-metadata.py' when network cooperates. Tests: macOS local 33/33 kernel_range pass; detect-test stubs (88 total) build clean; ASan/UBSan + clang-tidy CI jobs still green from the v0.7.x setup.	2026-05-23 22:15:44 -04:00
KaraZajac	8243817f7e	test harness: kernel_range unit tests + coverage report + register_all helper ... Three coupled improvements to the test harness: 1. New tests/test_kernel_range.c — 32 pure unit tests covering kernel_range_is_patched(), skeletonkey_host_kernel_at_least(), and skeletonkey_host_kernel_in_range(). These are the central comparison primitives every module routes through; a regression in any of them silently mis-classifies entire CVE families. Tests cover exact boundary, one-below, mainline-only, multi-LTS, between-branch, and NULL-safety cases. Builds and runs cross-platform (no Linux syscalls). 2. tests/test_detect.c additions: - mk_host(base, major, minor, patch, release) builder so new fingerprint-based tests don't duplicate 14-line struct literals to override one (major, minor, patch) triple. - Post-run coverage report that iterates the runtime registry and warns about modules without at least one direct test row. Output is informational (no CI fail) so coverage grows incrementally. - 7 new boundary tests for the kernel_patched_from entries added by tools/refresh-kernel-ranges.py (commit 8de46e2): - af_unix_gc 6.4.12 → VULNERABLE / 6.4.13 → OK - vmwgfx 5.10.127 → OK - nft_set_uaf 5.10.179 → OK / 6.1.27 → OK - nft_payload 5.10.162 → OK - nf_tables 5.10.209 → OK 3. core/registry_all.c — extracts the 27-line 'call every skeletonkey_register_<family>()' enumeration from skeletonkey.c into a shared helper. skeletonkey.c main() now calls skeletonkey_register_all_modules() once; the detect-test main() does the same. Kept in its own translation unit so registry.c stays standalone for the lean kernel_range unit-test binary (which links core/ only, no modules). Makefile: builds two test binaries now — skeletonkey-test — detect() integration tests (full corpus) skeletonkey-test-kr — kernel_range unit tests (core/ only) 'make test' runs both. Verification: - macOS: 32/32 kernel_range tests pass; detect tests skipped (non-Linux platform, stubbed bodies). - Linux (docker gcc:latest): 32/32 kernel_range + 51/51 detect. Coverage report identifies 2 modules without direct tests (copy_fail, entrybleed) out of 31 registered. Test counts: 44 -> 83 (+39).	2026-05-23 01:09:30 -04:00
