Summary

In the Linux kernel, the net1080 USB network driver's net1080_rx_fixup() reads a pad byte before checking frame length, allowing a malicious NetChip 1080 device to cause out-of-bounds buffer read by sending a short frame with a large packet_len.

Risk Assessment

Organizations using NetChip 1080-based USB network devices may be vulnerable to attacks from a malicious peripheral, leading to out-of-bounds read and potential system crash.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that rejects frames when packet_len >= skb->len before reading the pad byte.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: usb: net1080: validate packet_len before pad-byte access in rx_fixup For an even packet_len, net1080_rx_fixup() reads the pad byte at skb->data[packet_len] before the skb->len != packet_len check further down, and packet_len is only bounded against NC_MAX_PACKET. A malicious NetChip 1080 device can send a short frame advertising a large even packet_len (e.g. 0x4000), so the pad-byte read lands past the end of the skb: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in net1080_rx_fixup Read of size 1 at addr ffff8880106c83c6 by task ksoftirqd/0/14 ... net1080_rx_fixup (drivers/net/usb/net1080.c:384) usbnet_bh (drivers/net/usb/usbnet.c:1589) process_one_work (kernel/workqueue.c:3322) bh_worker (kernel/workqueue.c:3708) tasklet_action (kernel/softirq.c:965) handle_softirqs (kernel/softirq.c:622) ... Reject the frame when packet_len >= skb->len before reading.
