No race, no memory-layout dependency, no victim state required.\nPR:L - Any unprivileged local user can create the required network namespace via unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWNET), and a containerized process is already in one; the CAP_NET_ADMIN check at qrtr_port_assign() only gates low/control ports and is not needed for this attack.\nUI:N - The attacker performs all steps itself; no action by any other user or administrator is required to trigger the cross-namespace delivery.\nS:C - The flaw defeats the network-namespace confinement boundary itself: a process sandboxed in its own netns reaches the init_net global QRTR control plane, the in-kernel name service, and host-owned sockets, impacting resources under a different security authority than the attacker's container.\nC:H - By spoofing QRTR_TYPE_NEW_SERVER to the name service, a confined attacker registers itself as a well-known service so legitimate host clients direct their QMI traffic to it, and it can address modem/remote-processor endpoints directly, exposing sensitive telephony data it was isolated from.\nI:H - The attacker can inject arbitrary control-plane messages (NEW_SERVER, DEL_SERVER, BYE, DEL_CLIENT) that the receiver cannot distinguish from a legitimate node-1 client, corrupting the global service registry and allowing forged replies to host clients and commands to the modem.\nA:H - A single spoofed QRTR_TYPE_BYE makes ctrl_cmd_bye() delete every server registered on the local node and broadcast their removal, and the QRTR_NS_MAX_SERVERS/MAX_LOOKUPS limits can be exhausted, causing complete and repeatable loss of QRTR/modem IPC service for the whole system."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo":
