From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit e41a49fadbc80b60b48d3c095d9e2ee7ef7c9a8e upstream. It turns out that SLUB redzoning ("slub_debug=Z") checks from s->object_size rather than from s->inuse (which is normally bumped to make room for the freelist pointer), so a cache created with an object size less than 24 would have the freelist pointer written beyond s->object_size, causing the redzone to be corrupted by the freelist pointer. This was very visible with "slub_debug=ZF": BUG test (Tainted: G B ): Right Redzone overwritten ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO: 0xffff957ead1c05de-0xffff957ead1c05df @offset=1502.

Adjust the offset to stay within s->object_size. (Note that no caches of in this size range are known to exist in the kernel currently.)
