3th percentile - higher than 3% of all known CVEs

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the octeontx2-af CGX driver lacks a bounds check for the cgx_speed_mbps array index. The RESP_LINKSTAT_SPEED function can return values 0-15, but the array has only 13 elements, causing an out-of-bounds read.

Risk Assessment

Out-of-bounds array access may cause a kernel panic or incorrect network driver behavior.

Recommendation

Update the kernel to a version that includes the fix, which adds a bounds check and defaults to speed 0 for invalid indices.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-af: CGX: add bounds check to cgx_speed_mbps index cgx_speed_mbps has 13 elements but RESP_LINKSTAT_SPEED can yield values 0-15. If it returns a value >= 13, this causes an out-of-bounds array access. Add a bounds check and default to speed 0 if the index is out of range.
