Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: sr9700: include receive overhead in the length check
The receive fixup subtracts the Ethernet CRC from the reported packet
length, but compares that payload length against the whole remaining
receive buffer. The following copy starts after the three-byte header,
and the cursor advance consumes both that header and the four-byte CRC.
Require the payload to fit after SR_RX_OVERHEAD before copying it or
advancing to the next packet. The loop already ensures that the
remaining buffer is larger than the overhead, so the subtraction is
safe.
The issue was found by our static-analysis tool.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's sr9700 USB Ethernet driver. When processing incoming packets, the driver fails to properly account for packet header overhead during buffer length validation. An attacker capable of sending crafted packet data could trigger an out-of-bounds read, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) via a system crash.
Отчет
This vulnerability is evaluated as Moderate impact because exploitation requires an attacker to send malformed network packets to an active SR9700 USB Ethernet interface, with the impact confined to a system crash (denial of service). In standard Red Hat Enterprise Linux installations and cloud environments, this driver is not loaded by default and the corresponding hardware is rarely deployed. The vulnerability is only exposed if the SR9700 device is connected and its driver is initialized.
