A remote attacker anywhere on the network can drive this path with crafted packets.\nAC:L - The attacker can flood the FOU port continuously so a packet is always in flight, and FOU/netns teardown (the window where sk_user_data is NULL) is routine, frequent churn on container and cloud hosts that use FOU-encapsulated tunnels. The attacker also controls the value in the uninitialized stack slot by first sending a GUE packet with GUE_PFLAG_REMCSUM, which stores attacker-derived offset/delta into that exact frame slot in the same function.\nPR:N - There is no authentication, credential check, or capability test anywhere between packet reception and gue_gro_receive; the FOU socket accepts unsolicited datagrams. No local account or privilege of any kind is required.\nUI:N - Exploitation occurs entirely in softirq context on packet receipt with no victim action required.\nS:U - The uninitialized-value use and the resulting write both occur within the kernel\u0027s own security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The bug reads uninitialized kernel stack memory and folds it into a 16-bit value written into an in-flight network buffer, and the same defect provides an out-of-bounds write primitive at a partially attacker-influenced offset, which under kernel scoring practice is treated as leverageable for arbitrary memory disclosure.\nI:H - remcsum_unadjust() performs a 2-byte write through a pointer computed from the uninitialized (and attacker-groomable) grc-\u003eoffset; when the size_t arithmetic wraps the write lands far outside any legitimate buffer, giving an out-of-bounds write into kernel memory that can be leveraged for control-flow-relevant corruption.\nA:H - The wild-pointer 2-byte write at frag0 + ~4GiB faults on unmapped kernel memory and oopses in softirq context, and the surrounding corruption of GRO/checksum state destabilises the receive path \u2014 a remote unauthenticated kernel crash."

A remote attacker anywhere on the network can drive this path with crafted packets.\nAC:L - The attacker can flood the FOU port continuously so a packet is always in flight, and FOU/netns teardown (the window where sk_user_data is NULL) is routine, frequent churn on container and cloud hosts that use FOU-encapsulated tunnels. The attacker also controls the value in the uninitialized stack slot by first sending a GUE packet with GUE_PFLAG_REMCSUM, which stores attacker-derived offset/delta into that exact frame slot in the same function.\nPR:N - There is no authentication, credential check, or capability test anywhere between packet reception and gue_gro_receive; the FOU socket accepts unsolicited datagrams. No local account or privilege of any kind is required.\nUI:N - Exploitation occurs entirely in softirq context on packet receipt with no victim action required.\nS:U - The uninitialized-value use and the resulting write both occur within the kernel\u0027s own security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The bug reads uninitialized kernel stack memory and folds it into a 16-bit value written into an in-flight network buffer, and the same defect provides an out-of-bounds write primitive at a partially attacker-influenced offset, which under kernel scoring practice is treated as leverageable for arbitrary memory disclosure.\nI:H - remcsum_unadjust() performs a 2-byte write through a pointer computed from the uninitialized (and attacker-groomable) grc-\u003eoffset; when the size_t arithmetic wraps the write lands far outside any legitimate buffer, giving an out-of-bounds write into kernel memory that can be leveraged for control-flow-relevant corruption.\nA:H - The wild-pointer 2-byte write at frag0 + ~4GiB faults on unmapped kernel memory and oopses in softirq context, and the surrounding corruption of GRO/checksum state destabilises the receive path \u2014 a remote unauthenticated kernel crash."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Nomenclature

  • Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
  • Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
  • Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
  • Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
  • Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
