a remote MON/OSD/MDS peer sends that banner over routable IP.\nAC:L - The TCP peer fully controls the banner prefix and can set payload_len to 0, so prepare_read_banner_payload() installs a zero-length in_iter and populate_in_iter() hits WARN_ON(!iov_iter_count(&con->v2.in_iter)) on every such handshake; no race or layout outside the attacker\u2019s control is required.\nPR:N - process_banner_prefix() runs in CEPH_CON_S_V2_BANNER_PREFIX, before prepare_hello() and before CEPH_CON_S_V2_AUTH, so the malformed payload_len is processed prior to Cephx or any other credential check; the attacker is the remote TCP peer and needs no account on the victim host.\nUI:N - Once a kernel CephFS or RBD client is running, __open_session(), reopen_osd(), and MDS ceph_con_open() automatically TCP-reconnect and ceph_con_workfn() reads the peer banner with no further victim action; a compromised cluster daemon triggers the bug on that reconnect.\nS:U - The WARN_ON in populate_in_iter() and the resulting connection fault remain inside the victim kernel\u2019s libceph messenger and do not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:N - A zero payload_len only makes populate_in_iter() WARN and return -ENODATA after prepare_read_banner_payload() sets up an empty in_iter; the path does not perform an out-of-bounds read, UAF, or other kernel-memory disclosure.\nI:N - prepare_read_banner_payload() with payload_len 0 never writes past an allocated buffer, and the failure path only faults the connection; attacker input does not corrupt kernel memory or hijack control flow.\nA:H - WARN_ON(!iov_iter_count(&con->v2.in_iter)) in populate_in_iter() after a zero-length banner payload is an attacker-triggerable kernel warning that panics the host when panic_on_warn is set, and the -ENODATA return through ceph_con_v2_try_read() into con_fault() aborts every msgr2 handshake."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["net/ceph/messenger_v2.c"], "versions": [{"version": "cd1a677cad994021b19665ed476aea63f5d54f31", "lessThan": "279c0852999fd2384f4a88155091a99e81f96873", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd1a677cad994021b19665ed476aea63f5d54f31", "lessThan": "6cf666e47f2b51d5a887ec8a3226cde951757d27", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd1a677cad994021b19665ed476aea63f5d54f31", "lessThan": "3b2e62a7655d347a845a91155610ddae11daffc6", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd1a677cad994021b19665ed476aea63f5d54f31", "lessThan": "c1b937ff24b19e69aa7fb1b0f46a74d4c9668692", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd1a677cad994021b19665ed476aea63f5d54f31", "lessThan": "6d1c6f228854aa89844fd0152d7ed7ac72a55e89", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd1a677cad994021b19665ed476aea63f5d54f31", "lessThan": "c77633a9595658210a6e216a071e5a396a0835a7", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd1a677cad994021b19665ed476aea63f5d54f31", "lessThan": "f374967fcdf04001c9b66df1c19106fa83cd91f7", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["net/ceph/messenger_v2.c"], "versions": [{"version": "5.11", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "5.11", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "5.15.221", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.15.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.1.188", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.6.157", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.110", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.52", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.6", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3", "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": "5.11", "versionEndExcluding": "5.15.221"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.11", "versionEndExcluding": "6.1.188"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.11", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.157"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.11", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.110"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.11", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.52"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.11", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.6"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.11", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/279c0852999fd2384f4a88155091a99e81f96873"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6cf666e47f2b51d5a887ec8a3226cde951757d27"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3b2e62a7655d347a845a91155610ddae11daffc6"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c1b937ff24b19e69aa7fb1b0f46a74d4c9668692"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6d1c6f228854aa89844fd0152d7ed7ac72a55e89"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c77633a9595658210a6e216a071e5a396a0835a7"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f374967fcdf04001c9b66df1c19106fa83cd91f7"}], "title": "libceph: validate banner payload length", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
