Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: bound the policy rule dump by the caller's buffer size mv88e6xxx_get_rxnfc() uses rxnfc->rule_cnt as the write index while dumping the policy IDR, clobbering the input value before it has been looked at. That input is the number of entries the caller had room for. ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL requires no CAP_NET_ADMIN and the ioctl sizes the buffer from the rule_cnt userspace passes in, so once an admin has installed policy rules any user can ask for fewer slots than there are rules and run off the end of the allocation. A rule_cnt of 0 leaves the buffer pointer NULL and the walk dereferences it. Count into a local so the caller's limit survives the walk, and stop with -EMSGSIZE once it is reached.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Marvell 88E6xxx switch driver. The driver fails to validate the caller's buffer boundary when retrieving network policy rules, leading to memory writes beyond the allocated buffer or a null pointer dereference. A local unprivileged user can exploit this vulnerability by requesting fewer rule slots than installed, resulting in a system crash and Denial of Service (DoS) or potential privilege escalation.
