Two distinct OOB conditions\nfollow when entry->length < 4:\n\n1. The non-root path begins with kmemdup(&block[dir_offset],\n   sizeof(*dir->uuid), ...) which always reads 4 dwords from\n   dir_offset.  tb_property_entry_valid() only enforces\n   dir_offset + entry->length <= block_len, so a crafted entry\n   with dir_offset close to the end of the property block and\n   entry->length in 0..3 passes that gate but lets the UUID copy\n   run off the block (e.g. dir_offset = 497, dir_len = 3 in a\n   500-dword block reads block[497..501]).\n\n2. After the kmemdup, content_len = dir_len - 4 underflows size_t\n   to ~SIZE_MAX, nentries becomes SIZE_MAX / 4, and the entry\n   walk runs OOB on each iteration until an entry fails\n   validation or the kernel oopses on an unmapped page.\n\nReject dir_len < 4 on the non-root path *before* the UUID kmemdup,\nwhich closes both holes.\n\nAlso move INIT_LIST_HEAD(&dir->properties) up to immediately after\nthe dir allocation so the new error-return path (and the existing\nuuid-alloc failure path) calling tb_property_free_dir() sees a\nwalkable list rather than the zero-initialized NULL next/prev that\nlist_for_each_entry_safe() would oops on."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/thunderbolt/property.c"],"versions":[{"version":"cdae7c07e3e3509eaabc18c1640a55dc5b99c179","lessThan":"37abc4504fa19d8f9f1e87792e8a2b8fdb308e40","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"cdae7c07e3e3509eaabc18c1640a55dc5b99c179","lessThan":"e2d4d51cf5785815fa4e91e0c019e3eb2506a84c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"cdae7c07e3e3509eaabc18c1640a55dc5b99c179","lessThan":"de618299190b418291609e6921557253bd417e25","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"cdae7c07e3e3509eaabc18c1640a55dc5b99c179","lessThan":"5506c825f14d810f0690b1f4367cb7249ebb387a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"cdae7c07e3e3509eaabc18c1640a55dc5b99c179","lessThan":"542a13890b742099c461d70920e97b14e568f6ec","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"cdae7c07e3e3509eaabc18c1640a55dc5b99c179","lessThan":"d548179adcc87e1bc66b17e00352a1f536e76065","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"cdae7c07e3e3509eaabc18c1640a55dc5b99c179","lessThan":"3bec49ca55e08fb085cc4318f24b1b37eaab28cb","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"cdae7c07e3e3509eaabc18c1640a55dc5b99c179","lessThan":"de21b59c29e31c5108ddc04210631bbfab81b997","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/thunderbolt/property.c"],"versions":[{"version":"4.15","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"4.15","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.259","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.210","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.176","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.143","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.93","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.35","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.0.12","lessThanOrEqual":"7.0.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.15","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.259"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.15","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.210"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.176"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.143"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.93"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.15","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.35"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.15","versionEndExcluding":"7.0.12"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.15","versionEndExcluding":"7.1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/37abc4504fa19d8f9f1e87792e8a2b8fdb308e40"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e2d4d51cf5785815fa4e91e0c019e3eb2506a84c"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/de618299190b418291609e6921557253bd417e25"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5506c825f14d810f0690b1f4367cb7249ebb387a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/542a13890b742099c461d70920e97b14e568f6ec"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d548179adcc87e1bc66b17e00352a1f536e76065"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3bec49ca55e08fb085cc4318f24b1b37eaab28cb"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/de21b59c29e31c5108ddc04210631bbfab81b997"}],"title":"thunderbolt:
