Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: skmsg: preserve sg.copy across SG transforms The sk_msg sg.copy bitmap is part of the scatterlist entry ownership state. A set bit tells sk_msg_compute_data_pointers() not to expose the entry through writable BPF ctx->data. This protects entries backed by pages that are not private to the sk_msg, such as splice-backed file page-cache pages. Several sk_msg transform paths move, copy, split, or compact msg->sg.data[] entries without moving the matching sg.copy bit. This can make an externally backed entry arrive at a new slot with a clear copy bit. A later SK_MSG verdict can then expose sg_virt(sge) as writable ctx->data and BPF stores can modify the original page cache. Keep sg.copy synchronized with sg.data[] whenever entries are transferred, shifted, split, or copied into a new sk_msg. Clear the bit when an entry is replaced by a newly allocated private page or freed. This covers the BPF pull/push/pop helpers, sk_msg_shift_left/right(), sk_msg_xfer(), and tls_split_open_record(), including the partial tail entry created during TLS open-record splitting.

This protects entries backed by\npages that are not private to the sk_msg, such as splice-backed file\npage-cache pages.\n\nSeveral sk_msg transform paths move, copy, split, or compact\nmsg-\u003esg.data[] entries without moving the matching sg.copy bit. This can\nmake an externally backed entry arrive at a new slot with a clear copy\nbit. A later SK_MSG verdict can then expose sg_virt(sge) as writable\nctx-\u003edata and BPF stores can modify the original page cache.\n\nKeep sg.copy synchronized with sg.data[] whenever entries are\ntransferred, shifted, split, or copied into a new sk_msg. Clear the bit\nwhen an entry is replaced by a newly allocated private page or freed.\nThis covers the BPF pull/push/pop helpers, sk_msg_shift_left/right(),\nsk_msg_xfer(), and tls_split_open_record(), including the partial tail\nentry created during TLS open-record splitting."

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.

Related by attack behaviour

Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
