kernel: slab-out-of-bounds read vulnerabilities in cbq_classify

Published Jan 12, 2023 CVSS 3.1 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
cbq_classify in net/sched/sch_cbq.c in the Linux kernel through 6.1.4 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (slab-out-of-bounds read) because of type confusion (non-negative numbers can sometimes indicate a TC_ACT_SHOT condition rather than valid classification results).
