From: Massimiliano Pellizzer <massimiliano.pellizzer@canonical.com> stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.130 commit 33959a491e9fd557abfa5fce5ae4637d400915d3 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/14038 CVE: CVE-2026-23404 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit ab09264660f9de5d05d1ef4e225aa447c63a8747 upstream. The profile removal code uses recursion when removing nested profiles, which can lead to kernel stack exhaustion and system crashes. Reproducer: $ pf='a'; for ((i=0; i<1024; i++)); do echo -e "profile $pf { \n }" | apparmor_parser -K -a; pf="$pf//x"; done $ echo -n a > /sys/kernel/security/apparmor/.remove Replace the recursive __aa_profile_list_release() approach with an iterative approach in __remove_profile(). The function repeatedly finds and removes leaf profiles until the entire subtree is removed, maintaining the same removal semantic without recursion.
