The read uses ldr, but the KASAN shadow address is\nbyte-granular and is not guaranteed to be word aligned.\n\nARMv5 faults unaligned word loads. With CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC and\nCONFIG_VMAP_STACK enabled, ARM926/VersatilePB crashes in __switch_to()\nwith an alignment exception before reaching init.\n\nUse ldrb for the dummy shadow access. The code only needs to fault in the\nshadow mapping if the stack shadow is missing, so a byte load is sufficient\nand matches the granularity of KASAN shadow memory.","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/2a4dc9a0ac3326e79fb58fdaae724b92127709a9","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/517720913bd3c17a52cd55a740064f68455ab88e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/77a1f6883dc6e837bb2cb30b9b02e2f94338e2c6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c0b8c148a7754826156993ed6442d31536ec86b4","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c2e3aadc8fef7da068490597fc5582f8f362aeb2"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:42:16.820116992+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-53343","score":0.00125,"percentile":0.02196,"date":"2026-10-31"},"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).
