on Airoha EN7581/AN7583 CPE/router SoCs this path is driven by remotely sourced Ethernet WAN/LAN or WiFi traffic without local syscall access.\nAC:L - An attacker controls packet 5-tuples and send rate to populate FOE entries and force CPU-reason 0x0f; roughly half of valid hash indices (hash >= ppe_num_entries/2) deterministically hit the undersized buffer, with only a 100ms per-hash software throttle.\nPR:N - Exploitation requires only the ability to send network packets to or through the device's registered interfaces; no local account, capability, namespace admin rights, or authentication on the RX/offload path.\nUI:N - No cooperative victim action is needed beyond normal always-on routing/bridging of attacker-supplied packets through the Airoha Ethernet or mt76 WiFi RX handlers.\nS:U - Impact is confined to kernel heap memory corruption and privilege escalation within the host running the Airoha driver; it does not cross a VM, hypervisor, or IOMMU security boundary.\nC:H - airoha_ppe_check_skb() performs an out-of-bounds read of ppe->foe_check_time[hash] before writing a u16 timestamp, and the adjacent heap overflow can expose or corrupt neighboring kernel objects.\nI:H - The same path writes a u16 beyond the allocated foe_check_time buffer, giving a kernel heap out-of-bounds write that can be leveraged for further memory corruption or control-flow manipulation.\nA:H - The fix commit explicitly warns of heap buffer overflow and potential kernel crash; corrupted adjacent heap metadata or pointers from the OOB access can trigger oops, panic, or loss of network availability."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/net/ethernet/airoha/airoha_ppe.c"], "versions": [{"version": "56b99327a451917f1c17f85fc33ea8293c08a9ee", "lessThan": "112b5eff24e044561ee9599a0d34e0fcea1df4e0", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "6d5b601d52a27aafff555b480e538507901c672c", "lessThan": "9f7cd1e26d2f1766438edc9b9254f2c618f9ae98", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "6d5b601d52a27aafff555b480e538507901c672c", "lessThan": "5c121ee635680c93d7074becf14cfbaac140f80d", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "6.18.33", "lessThan": "6.18.40", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/net/ethernet/airoha/airoha_ppe.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6.19", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.19", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.40", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.1.5", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.18.33", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.40"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.19", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1.5"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.19", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/112b5eff24e044561ee9599a0d34e0fcea1df4e0"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9f7cd1e26d2f1766438edc9b9254f2c618f9ae98"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5c121ee635680c93d7074becf14cfbaac140f80d"}], "title": "net: airoha: fix foe_check_time allocation size", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
