attacker fully controls the inputs that drive hint computation (filter masks differing in \u22648 consecutive bits, insertion order, and forcing C-TCAM spill by exceeding the 16-ERP A-TCAM limit), and the rehash work that consumes the hints runs automatically on an interval, so the nesting condition can be constructed and re-attempted at will.\nPR:L - Installing offloaded tc flower filters requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in the namespace owning the netdevice, which is a low-privilege capability obtainable by an unprivileged user in a network namespace they own; no real root in the init namespace is needed.\nUI:N - The attacker performs all steps themselves \u2014 adding filters and letting the driver's own rehash workqueue consume the hints \u2014 with no action by any other user.\nS:U - The corruption and its impact are confined to the kernel's own memory and the switch ASIC state managed by the same kernel, with no crossing into another security authority.\nC:H - The delta-as-root type confusion reads fields (`erp_table`, `id`, `index`, `mask_bitmap`) beyond the end of the much smaller delta allocation and dereferences the resulting heap-derived pointer chain, giving out-of-bounds reads of adjacent slab memory that can be leveraged for kernel information disclosure.\nI:H - Type confusion between `mlxsw_sp_acl_erp_delta` and `mlxsw_sp_acl_erp` plus the broken parent refcounting (delta_destroy/put on a nested parent that never took a reference) yields attacker-influenceable wild-pointer use and premature-free conditions, along with bogus ERP ids/banks being programmed into hardware.\nA:H - The documented outcome is a general protection fault in `mlxsw_sp_acl_erp_bf_insert()` from a kernel workqueue, plus multiple WARNs \u2014 a kernel crash that takes down the switch's control plane."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles":
