Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bridge: br_nd_send: validate ND option lengths
br_nd_send() walks ND options according to option-provided lengths.
A malformed option can make the parser advance beyond the computed
option span or use a too-short source LLADDR option payload.
Validate option lengths against the remaining NS option area before
advancing, and only read source LLADDR when the option is large enough
for an Ethernet address.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's bridge module. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a malformed Neighbor Discovery (ND) option. This could cause the br_nd_send() function to improperly process option lengths, potentially leading to information disclosure or a denial of service (DoS).
Отчет
Bridge ND transmission must validate option lengths before walking skb data (related hardening to earlier linearize fixes). Red Hat advises bridge users to take networking kernel updates; unload bridge if bridging is not required.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the bridge module from being loaded. See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for instructions.
