Attempted the most tractable kernel primitive to gauge the frontier. Kernel
confirmed vulnerable (focal GA 5.4.0-26 and a provisioned mainline 5.8.0, both
pre the 5.4.0-77/5.8.0-53 fix). But Andy Nguyen's well-regarded single-file
public exploit consistently fails at STAGE 1 ("could not corrupt any primary
message") on both — it is tuned for Ubuntu's exact 5.8.0-48-generic slab config
(freelist randomisation / memcg kmem accounting / SLUB merge), which mainline
kernels don't match, and Ubuntu's EOL 5.8.0-48 HWE debs aren't readily
sourceable. Recorded in docs/EXPLOITED.md: kernel primitives are
config-and-version-specific exploit-dev — even a reference exploit needs its
exact target kernel image + per-target tuning + a full port, a per-primitive
multi-session effort. No code change; documentation of the empirical result.
