- The vulnerable BFQ cgroup path is reached through local block I/O (read/write syscalls) and blkcg association changes on a BFQ-managed queue, not via network packet processing.\nAC:L - An attacker can induce the oom_bfqq fallback via memory pressure they control, then trigger bfq_bfqq_move through cgroup-associated I/O; BFQ with group scheduling is a common real-world configuration, not a rare dependency.\nPR:L - An unprivileged local user can submit I/O on BFQ devices and cause bios/tasks to span blkcgs (app cgroups, writeback, delegated/user scopes); CAP_SYS_ADMIN is not required to reach the buggy move path.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the I/O and cgroup-related actions themselves; no separate victim interaction is required.\nS:U - This is a kernel memory-corruption bug within the host kernel's authority and does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or other security boundary.\nC:H - The bug is a use-after-free with a confirmed write to a freed bfq_group; UAF control of freed object contents enables arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - The KASAN report shows an 8-byte write to freed memory in __bfq_put_async_bfqq during group teardown, which is exploitable for heap corruption and
