Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: eth: bnxt: fix truesize for mb-xdp-pass case When mb-xdp is set and return is XDP_PASS, packet is converted from xdp_buff to sk_buff with xdp_update_skb_shared_info() in bnxt_xdp_build_skb(). bnxt_xdp_build_skb() passes incorrect truesize argument to xdp_update_skb_shared_info(). The truesize is calculated as BNXT_RX_PAGE_SIZE * sinfo->nr_frags but the skb_shared_info was wiped by napi_build_skb() before. So it stores sinfo->nr_frags before bnxt_xdp_build_skb() and use it instead of getting skb_shared_info from xdp_get_shared_info_from_buff(). Splat looks like: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 0 at net/core/skbuff.c:6072 skb_try_coalesce+0x504/0x590 Modules linked in: xt_nat xt_tcpudp veth af_packet xt_conntrack nft_chain_nat xt_MASQUERADE nf_conntrack_netlink xfrm_user xt_addrtype nft_coms CPU: 2 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/2 Not tainted 6.14.0-rc2+ #3 RIP: 0010:skb_try_coalesce+0x504/0x590 Code: 4b fd ff ff 49 8b 34 24 40 80 e6 40 0f 84 3d fd ff ff 49 8b 74 24 48 40 f6 c6 01 0f 84 2e fd ff ff 48 8d 4e ff e9 25 fd ff ff <0f> 0b e99 RSP: 0018:ffffb62c4120caa8 EFLAGS: 00010287 RAX: 0000000000000003 RBX: ffffb62c4120cb14 RCX: 0000000000000ec0 RDX: 0000000000001000 RSI: ffffa06e5d7dc000 RDI: 0000000000000003 RBP: ffffa06e5d7ddec0 R08: ffffa06e6120a800 R09: ffffa06e7a119900 R10: 0000000000002310 R11: ffffa06e5d7dcec0 R12: ffffe4360575f740 R13: ffffe43600000000 R14: 0000000000000002 R15: 0000000000000002 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffffa0755f700000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f147b76b0f8 CR3: 00000001615d4000 CR4: 00000000007506f0 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: <IRQ> ? __warn+0x84/0x130 ? skb_try_coalesce+0x504/0x590 ? report_bug+0x18a/0x1a0 ? handle_bug+0x53/0x90 ? exc_invalid_op+0x14/0x70 ? asm_exc_invalid_op+0x16/0x20 ? skb_try_coalesce+0x504/0x590 inet_frag_reasm_finish+0x11f/0x2e0 ip_defrag+0x37a/0x900 ip_local_deliver+0x51/0x120 ip_sublist_rcv_finish+0x64/0x70 ip_sublist_rcv+0x179/0x210 ip_list_rcv+0xf9/0x130 How to reproduce: <Node A> ip link set $interface1 xdp obj xdp_pass.o ip link set $interface1 mtu 9000 up ip a a 10.0.0.1/24 dev $interface1 <Node B> ip link set $interfac2 mtu 9000 up ip a a 10.0.0.2/24 dev $interface2 ping 10.0.0.1 -s 65000 Following ping.py patch adds xdp-mb-pass case. so ping.py is going to be able to reproduce this issue.

El truesize se calcula como BNXT_RX_PAGE_SIZE * sinfo-\u0026gt;nr_frags, pero napi_build_skb() borr\u00f3 previamente skb_shared_info. De este modo, almacena sinfo-\u0026gt;nr_frags antes de bnxt_xdp_build_skb() y lo utiliza en lugar de obtener skb_shared_info de xdp_get_shared_info_from_buff().

Jumbo/multi-buffer frames are routable end-to-end inside jumbo-enabled datacenter and cloud VPC fabrics, so the sender need not share the victim\u0027s L2 segment.\nAC:L - On an affected host (Broadcom NetXtreme NIC, jumbo MTU, multi-buffer XDP program returning XDP_PASS) every oversized packet deterministically produces the wrong truesize \u2014 the upstream reproducer is a single `ping -s 65000`. There is no race to win and no memory-layout condition outside the attacker\u0027s control.\nPR:N - The vulnerable code executes in softirq/NAPI context on raw received frames, long before any socket lookup, authentication, or capability check. An unauthenticated attacker with no account on the target simply emits packets.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed at attack time; the XDP program and jumbo MTU are pre-existing deployment configuration, not interaction solicited from a user. Packet arrival alone drives the entire path.\nS:U - The miscounted truesize corrupts skb and socket memory accounting within the same kernel security authority that owns the RX path. No VM, container, or IOMMU boundary is crossed.\nC:N - Only the truesize accounting field is wrong; skb-\u003efrags[] and xdp_frags_size retain their correct values, so no out-of-bounds or uninitialized memory is read or exposed to userspace. Nothing is disclosed to the attacker.\nI:N - There is no out-of-bounds write, type confusion, or control-flow corruption \u2014 the erroneous value only skews internal memory-accounting counters, whose consequence is availability rather than data modification.\nA:H - The under-counted truesize trips WARN_ON_ONCE(delta \u003c len) in skb_try_coalesce() during IP reassembly, which is an immediate kernel panic on the panic_on_warn configurations common in cloud and hardened fleets. Even without panic_on_warn, sk_rmem_alloc/sk_forward_alloc and the IP-defrag memory limit are under-charged by roughly the frag count, letting a remote flood pin several times the configured buffer memory and drive the system to OOM."

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
