Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: devmem: reject dma-buf bind with non-page-aligned size or SG length net_devmem_bind_dmabuf() trusts dmabuf->size and sg_dma_len() to be PAGE_SIZE multiples without checking: - tx_vec is sized dmabuf->size / PAGE_SIZE, and net_devmem_get_niov_at() only bounds-checks virt_addr size before indexing tx_vec[virt_addr / PAGE_SIZE].

With size = N*PAGE_SIZE + r (1 area.num_niovs = len / PAGE_SIZE while gen_pool_add_owner() covers the full byte len, so a non-page-multiple non-final sg desyncs num_niovs from the gen_pool region for every later sg, on both RX and TX. dma-buf does not require page-aligned sizes, so the bind path has to enforce what its own indexing assumes.

Reject both with -EINVAL. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's network device memory (net: devmem) component.

This vulnerability allows an attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds read by providing specially crafted Direct Memory Access (DMA) buffers with non-page-aligned sizes or Scatter-Gather (SG) list lengths. This could lead to information disclosure or memory corruption, potentially impacting system stability and data integrity.

Red Hat severity: Moderate. Weakness: CWE-125.
