The root cause\nis that __kmalloc_cache_noprof was directly used, which resulted in no\nalloc_tag being allocated. This caused current->alloc_tag to be null,\nleading to a warning in alloc_tag_add_check.\n\nLet's add an alloc_hook layer to __kmalloc_cache_noprof specifically\nwithin lib/slub_kunit.c, which is the only user of this internal slub\nfunction outside kmalloc implementation itself.\n\n[58162.947016] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 6210 at\n./include/linux/alloc_tag.h:125 alloc_tagging_slab_alloc_hook+0x268/0x27c\n[58162.957721] Call trace:\n[58162.957919]  alloc_tagging_slab_alloc_hook+0x268/0x27c\n[58162.958286]  __kmalloc_cache_noprof+0x14c/0x344\n[58162.958615]  test_kmalloc_redzone_access+0x50/0x10c [slub_kunit]\n[58162.959045]  kunit_try_run_case+0x74/0x184 [kunit]\n[58162.959401]  kunit_generic_run_threadfn_adapter+0x2c/0x4c [kunit]\n[58162.959841]  kthread+0x10c/0x118\n[58162.960093]  ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20\n[58162.960363] ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2b059d0d1e624adc6e69a754bc48057f8bf459dc","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/79aea7dfd98fbbf282d1408fc21849fc9a677768"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:57:34.731061660+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-53049","score":0.00202,"percentile":0.10134,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
