a compromised peer (or a gadget-mode board presenting 0525:1080, which autoloads the default-y driver) sends the frame over an already-established link with no physical interaction at attack time.\nAC:L - The attacker fully and deterministically controls packet_len and the frame length in every received frame, so the out-of-bounds read is triggered on demand with no race, no timing dependency, and no reliance on memory layout the attacker cannot influence.\nPR:N - The rx path runs in softirq/workqueue context on every received URB with no authentication, no capability check, and no local account on the target; USB/link-level peers are entirely untrusted and ungated.\nUI:N - The driver binds automatically via MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE and processes frames in usbnet_bh without any user action; on an already-connected host-to-host cable the victim does nothing at all.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds read stays within the kernel's own memory and security authority, with no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - The attacker controls the read offset across a ~32 KB range past a 1523-byte slab/page-frag object, and the comparison outcome is leaked back over the wire because only the matching path reaches nc_ensure_sync()'s vendor control transfer, yielding a repeatable oracle for probing kernel heap contents rather than a bounded few-byte read.\nI:N - The path performs only a one-byte read; the subsequent skb->len != packet_len check still rejects the frame, and the skb_trim calls on the underflow paths are no-ops, so no kernel memory or network data is modified.\nA:H - The read reaches roughly 31 KB beyond the allocation, which can cross into a KFENCE guard page, an unmapped hole, or a page-frag boundary and oops in softirq context, and on KASAN/panic_on_warn hardened kernels it panics the machine outright — repeatable per frame."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/net/usb/net1080.c"],"versions":[{"version":"904813cd8a0b334189da285bb05af0b18b062502","lessThan":"f42217fa7d535e9ec4151f7971f06f6ea65e850a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"904813cd8a0b334189da285bb05af0b18b062502","lessThan":"c087749815379e9af2fdbeb08bfc33870b103958","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"904813cd8a0b334189da285bb05af0b18b062502","lessThan":"e4a87126c085b097d29e17e3b7647295bba8be7c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"904813cd8a0b334189da285bb05af0b18b062502","lessThan":"685e92934f11d5e215dad58813e2f9955ac2f436","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"904813cd8a0b334189da285bb05af0b18b062502","lessThan":"4dc8484be3302d187274364820d3bef6c62bde32","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"904813cd8a0b334189da285bb05af0b18b062502","lessThan":"b153cfe84b1340c69a13d0957665a2bfcf21239c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"904813cd8a0b334189da285bb05af0b18b062502","lessThan":"ea866cab12db1a2100b400a8b03569e5bc0ee29a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"904813cd8a0b334189da285bb05af0b18b062502","lessThan":"03f384bc0cb8d4a1301d4f5b0baef2d980258383","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/net/usb/net1080.c"],"versions":[{"version":"2.6.14","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"2.6.14","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.261","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.212","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.178","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.145","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.97","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.40","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1.5","lessThanOrEqual":"7.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2","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":"2.6.14","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.261"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"2.6.14","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.212"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"2.6.14","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.178"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"2.6.14","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.145"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"2.6.14","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.97"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"2.6.14","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.40"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"2.6.14","versionEndExcluding":"7.1.5"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"2.6.14","versionEndExcluding":"7.2"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f42217fa7d535e9ec4151f7971f06f6ea65e850a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c087749815379e9af2fdbeb08bfc33870b103958"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e4a87126c085b097d29e17e3b7647295bba8be7c"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/685e92934f11d5e215dad58813e2f9955ac2f436"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4dc8484be3302d187274364820d3bef6c62bde32"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b153cfe84b1340c69a13d0957665a2bfcf21239c"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ea866cab12db1a2100b400a8b03569e5bc0ee29a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/03f384bc0cb8d4a1301d4f5b0baef2d980258383"}],"title":"net: usb: net1080: validate packet_len before pad-byte access in rx_fixup","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
