However, this would require patching the kernel .text or modifying SVC-access-control. Even if you could get these to execute, they would still jump to memory that isn't mapped as executable.

| PXI [[RPC_Command_Structure|Command]] input/output buffer permissions
| PXI [[RPC_Command_Structure|Command]] input/output buffer permissions
| Originally the ARM11-kernel didn't check permissions for PXI input/output buffers for commands. Starting with [[6.0.0-11|6.0.0]] PXI input/output buffers must have RW permissions, otherwise kernelpanic is triggered.

* The kernel now also checks whether the srcaddr/dstaddr (+size) is within userland memory (0x20000000), the kernel now (with [[6.0.0-11]]) returns an error when the address is beyond userland memory. Using an address >=0x20000000 would result in the kernel reading from the process L1 MMU table, beyond the memory allocated for that MMU table(for vaddr->physaddr conversion).

If the two words at threadlocalstorage+0x180 could be overwritten with controlled data this way, one could then use a command with a buffer-header of <nowiki>((size<<14) | 2)</nowiki> to write arbitrary memory to any RW userland memory in the destination process.

| [[SVC|svcControlMemory]] MemoryOperation MAP memory-permissions
| [[SVC|svcControlMemory]] MemoryOperation MAP memory-permissions
| svcControlMemory with MemoryOperation=MAP allows mapping the already-mapped process virtual-mem at addr1, to addr0. The lowest address permitted for addr1 is 0x00100000. Originally the ARM11 kernel didn't check memory permissions for addr1. Therefore .text as addr1 could be mapped elsewhere as RW- memory, which allowed ARM11 userland code-execution.

| [[RPC_Command_Structure|Command]] input/output buffer permissions
| [[RPC_Command_Structure|Command]] input/output buffer permissions
| Originally the ARM11 kernel didn't check memory permissions for the input/output buffers for commands. Starting with [[4.0.0-7]] the ARM11 kernel will trigger a kernelpanic() if the input/output buffers don't have the required memory permissions. For example, this allowed a FSUSER file-read to .text, which therefore allowed ARM11-userland code execution.
