When dst has signed range [-1, 0], it\nforks the verifier state: the pushed path gets dst = 0, the current\npath gets dst = -1.\n\nFor BPF_AND this is correct: 0 \u0026 K == 0.\nFor BPF_OR this is wrong:    0 | K == K, not 0.\n\nThe pushed path therefore tracks dst as 0 when the runtime value is K,\nproducing an exploitable verifier/runtime divergence that allows\nout-of-bounds map access.\n\nFix this by passing env-\u003einsn_idx (instead of env-\u003einsn_idx + 1) to\npush_stack(), so the pushed path re-executes the ALU instruction with\ndst = 0 and naturally computes the correct result for any opcode."

A plausible path is an attacker-supplied socket-filter BPF program using attacker-created maps.\nAC:L - The attacker controls the BPF bytecode, map layout, and scalar values needed to trigger the verifier/runtime divergence. There is no race or external condition beyond attacker control.\nPR:L - Exploitation requires a local user able to load BPF programs, which can be a basic unprivileged user where unprivileged BPF is enabled or a delegated BPF capability path exists. It does not inherently require real init-namespace root for the vulnerable verifier logic.\nUI:N - No victim action is required after the attacker loads and runs the crafted BPF program. The trigger is fully under the local attacker\u0027s control.\nS:U - This is a standard kernel privilege-escalation style BPF verifier flaw within the same host kernel security authority. It does not cross a VM, hypervisor, or IOMMU boundary.\nC:H - The verifier/runtime divergence allows out-of-bounds map-value reads, which can expose adjacent kernel heap data and be developed into broader kernel memory disclosure. BPF verifier OOB map-access bugs are commonly exploitable as kernel read primitives.\nI:H - The same incorrect bounds reasoning can be applied to writes through map-value pointers, enabling out-of-bounds kernel heap corruption. That is sufficient for arbitrary kernel memory modification or code execution in a defensible worst case.\nA:H - Out-of-bounds BPF memory access can corrupt kernel memory or fault the kernel, causing an oops, panic, or hang. Even failed exploitation can be repeatedly triggered by the local attacker."
