Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-08-22 16:16 - Updated: 2026-10-14 13:10
Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/atm: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in vcc_setsockopt()
vcc_setsockopt() contained an ineffective optlen check:
if (__SO_LEVEL_MATCH(optname, level) && optlen != __SO_SIZE(optname))
return -EINVAL;
If __SO_LEVEL_MATCH(optname, level) evaluated to false (e.g. if the caller
passed a mismatched level), the length check optlen != __SO_SIZE(optname)
was short-circuited and bypassed. Execution then fell through to switch(optname),
calling copy_from_sockptr() assuming optval contained sufficient space.
Furthermore, even if level matched, a cgroup BPF setsockopt filter could shrink
optlen after entry. Because copy_from_sockptr() on kernel pointers uses memcpy(),
this leads to a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read when optlen is smaller than the
expected structure size.
Fix this by using copy_safe_from_sockptr(), which unconditionally validates
that optlen is at least the expected size before copying. Also change the local
'value' variable type from 'unsigned long' to 'int' so that SO_SETCLP matches
its sizeof(int) ABI encoding on 64-bit systems.
