We found a bug reachable in:

    path    security/keys/trusted-keys
    crash   out-of-bounds in tpm2_unseal_trusted()
    commit  2709dd5ae32f ("Merge tag 'sched-urgent-2026-08-22' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip")

Config, environment, the sanitizer report and a C reproducer follow.

== Notes ===============================================================
    If you patch the bug based on our artifacts, a tag would be
    appreciated:

Reported-by: co+6a581c4284f721d4@bugs.sh

    Everything in this mail is validated by the reproducer below.

    We also hold an LLM-generated root-cause analysis and a candidate
    patch. The patch passes an A/B test: the same reproducer panics the
    unpatched kernel and runs clean on the patched one. Neither has had
    human review, so both still require validation before you send or
    apply them. Available on:

        patch.diff  https://bugs.sh/b/6a581c4284f721d4/patch.diff
        report.md   https://bugs.sh/b/6a581c4284f721d4/report.md

    This is an open science project. The code and the full set of PoCs
    are not public at this moment, as we intend to disclose our findings
    in an ethical way.

    Happy to test patches. Complaints and suggestions about our work
    are welcome at:
