4th percentile - higher than 4% of all known CVEs

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the RDMA/mana driver lacked validation of the rx_hash_key_len value from userspace. This allowed unbounded memcpy, potentially causing kernel memory corruption.

Risk Assessment

A local attacker with user privileges could exploit this to write beyond allocated kernel memory, leading to privilege escalation, system crash, or data leakage.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix validating rx_hash_key_len before memcpy.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/mana: Validate rx_hash_key_len Sashiko points out that rx_hash_key_len comes from a uAPI structure and is blindly passed to memcpy, allowing the userspace to trash kernel memory. Bounds check it so the memcpy cannot overflow.
