In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Fix MCIA register buffer overflow on 32 dword reads
The MCIA register can return up to 32 dwords (128 bytes) when the device
advertises the mcia_32dwords capability, but struct
mlx5_ifc_mcia_reg_bits only defines dword_0..11, leaving room for just
12 dwords (48 bytes) of data.
mlx5_query_mcia() clamps the read size to mlx5_mcia_max_bytes() and then
memcpy()s that many bytes out of the register, potentially reading past
the end of the 'out' buffer. On kernels built with FORTIFY_SOURCE this
is caught as a buffer overflow while reading the module EEPROM via
ethtool:
detected buffer overflow in memcpy
kernel BUG at lib/string_helpers.c:1048!
RIP: 0010:fortify_panic+0x13/0x20

Extend the mcia_reg layout to 32 dwords.
A flaw was found in the net/mlx5 driver of the Linux kernel. When the driver attempts to read the MCIA register from a device advertising the mcia_32dwords capability, the mlx5_query_mcia() function can read more data than the allocated buffer can hold. This leads to a buffer overflow, which can cause a kernel bug and result in a system crash, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
