Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust: arm64: set uwtable llvm module flag for CONFIG_UNWIND_TABLES
Due to a rustc bug [1] the -Cforce-unwind-tables=y flag only emits the
uwtable annotation for functions, but not for the module. This means
that compiler-generated functions such as 'asan.module_ctor' do not
receive the uwtable annotation.
When CONFIG_UNWIND_PATCH_PAC_INTO_SCS is enabled, this leads to boot
failures because the dwarf information emitted for the kasan
constructors is wrong, which causes the SCS boot patching code to
patch the constructor in an illegal manner. Specifically, the paciasp
instruction is patched, but the autiasp instruction is not. This
mismatch leads to a crash when the constructor is called during boot.
==================================================================
BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in do_basic_setup+0x4c/0x90
Read of size 8 at addr ffffffe3cc7eb488 by task swapper/0/1
Specifically the faulting instruction is the (*fn)() to invoke the
constructor in do_ctors() of the init/main.c file.
Once the fix lands in rustc, this flag can be made conditional on the
rustc version. Note that passing the flag on a rustc with the fix
present has no effect.
[ The fix [1] has landed for Rust 1.98.0 (expected release on
2026-08-20).
Thus add a version check as discussed.
