Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sched/task_stack: fix object_is_on_stack() for KASAN tagged pointers

When CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS and CONFIG_KASAN_STACK are enabled, the object_is_on_stack() function may produce incorrect results due to the presence of tags in the obj pointer, while the stack pointer does not have tags. This discrepancy can lead to incorrect stack object detection and subsequently trigger warnings if CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS is also enabled.

Example of the warning:
