I found a Linux kernel security bug (in AF_UNIX) and decided to write a kernel exploit for it that can go straight from "attacker can run arbitrary native code in a seccomp-sandboxed Chrome renderer" to kernel compromise:

This post includes fun things like:

• a nice semi-arbitrary read primitive combined with an annoying write primitive
• slowing down usercopy without FUSE or userfaultfd
• CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET as an exploitation aid
• a rarely-used kernel feature that Chrome doesn't need but is reachable in the Chrome sandbox
• sched_getcpu() usable inside Chrome renderers despite getcpu being blocked by seccomp (thanks to vDSO)
