Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ip6t_hbh: reject oversized option lists
struct ip6t_opts stores at most IP6T_OPTS_OPTSNR option descriptors,
but hbh_mt6_check() does not reject larger optsnr values supplied from
userspace.
Validate optsnr in the rule setup path so only match data that fits the
fixed-size opts array can be installed. This follows the existing xtables
pattern of rejecting invalid user-provided counts in checkentry() and
keeps the packet matching path unchanged.
struct ip6t_opts has a fixed opts[IP6T_OPTS_OPTSNR] array,
where IP6T_OPTS_OPTSNR is 16, then off-by-one array access is possible:
[ 137.924693][ T8692] UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in ../net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_hbh.c:110:29
[ 137.926167][ T8692] index 16 is out of range for type '__u16 [16]'
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter subsystem, specifically within the ip6t_hbh module responsible for handling IPv6 Hop-by-Hop (HBH) options. This vulnerability allows a local attacker to provide an oversized list of HBH options from userspace, leading to an out-of-bounds write. This can result in memory corruption and potentially cause a system crash, leading to a denial of service.
