Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: DR, Fix slab-out-of-bounds in mlx5_cmd_dr_create_fte
When adding a rule with 32 destinations, we hit the following out-of-band
access issue:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in mlx5_cmd_dr_create_fte+0x18ee/0x1e70
This patch fixes the issue by both increasing the allocated buffers to
accommodate for the needed actions and by checking the number of actions
to prevent this issue when a rule with too many actions is provided.
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's Ethernet fs_dr.c driver in the mlx5_cmd_dr_create_fte() function, where a slab-out-of-bounds can occur. This flaw is caused by how the driver allocates and manages memory when dealing with flow rules actions. A rule can have up to 32 destinations, but additional actions can also be stored in the same buffer used for destinations. The out-of-bounds access occurs when the allocated buffer size is insufficiently sized to contain all possible actions (more than 32), potentially leading to memory corruption or system instability.
Отчет
