| Subject: CVE-2024-26849: netlink: add nla be16/32 types to minlen array |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| netlink: add nla be16/32 types to minlen array |
| |
| BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in nla_validate_range_unsigned lib/nlattr.c:222 [inline] |
| BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in nla_validate_int_range lib/nlattr.c:336 [inline] |
| BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in validate_nla lib/nlattr.c:575 [inline] |
| BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in __nla_validate_parse+0x2e20/0x45c0 lib/nlattr.c:631 |
| nla_validate_range_unsigned lib/nlattr.c:222 [inline] |
| nla_validate_int_range lib/nlattr.c:336 [inline] |
| validate_nla lib/nlattr.c:575 [inline] |
| ... |
| |
| The message in question matches this policy: |
| |
| [NFTA_TARGET_REV] = NLA_POLICY_MAX(NLA_BE32, 255), |
| |
| but because NLA_BE32 size in minlen array is 0, the validation |
| code will read past the malformed (too small) attribute. |
| |
| Note: Other attributes, e.g. BITFIELD32, SINT, UINT.. are also missing: |
| those likely should be added too. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-26849 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
