This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled rtnetlink: Correct nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST attribute validation to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: rtnetlink-correct-nested-ifla_vf_vlan_list-attribute.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 6f66058fdaea6899c3348877ca6e703fb006bd92 Author: Roded Zats <rzats@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu May 2 18:57:51 2024 +0300 rtnetlink: Correct nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST attribute validation [ Upstream commit 1aec77b2bb2ed1db0f5efc61c4c1ca3813307489 ] Each attribute inside a nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST is assumed to be a struct ifla_vf_vlan_info so the size of such attribute needs to be at least of sizeof(struct ifla_vf_vlan_info) which is 14 bytes. The current size validation in do_setvfinfo is against NLA_HDRLEN (4 bytes) which is less than sizeof(struct ifla_vf_vlan_info) so this validation is not enough and a too small attribute might be cast to a struct ifla_vf_vlan_info, this might result in an out of bands read access when accessing the saved (casted) entry in ivvl.
