{"id":"AZL-101213","summary":"CVE-2026-90011 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: target: iscsi: Reserve a terminator byte for the login payload\n\niscsi_target_check_login_request() rejects a login PDU whose\nDataSegmentLength exceeds MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS, but the test is '\u003e' and\nlogin-\u003ereq_buf is allocated with exactly MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS\nbytes. Since iscsit_get_login_rx() receives payload_length + padding\nbytes, where\n\n\tpadding = ((-payload_length) & 3);\n\nany payload_length from 8189 to 8192 fills the whole 8192 byte\nbuffer. The write stays in bounds, but no byte is left for a NUL\nterminator.\n\nThe buffer is subsequently consumed as a C string. In the CHAP path\nchap_check_algorithm() calls kstrdup(a_str), and extract_param() calls\nstrstr(in_buf, pattern) followed by strlen_semi(), none of which take a\nlength. convert_null_to_semi() additionally rewrites every embedded NUL\nto ';', so even a payload made of well formed NUL separated key=value\nrecords is left without a terminator. These walk past the end of the\nobject into adjacent slab memory. It is reachable by an unauthenticated\ninitiator against a portal configured for CHAP; when authentication is\nnot required iscsi_login_zero_tsih_s2() rewrites AuthMethod to None and\nthe CHAP path is never entered.\n\nAllocate one extra byte. kzalloc() zeroes it and nothing ever writes to\nit, as every writer copies to offset 0 for at most MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS\nbytes, so the buffer is always terminated.","modified":"2026-09-18T05:37:08Z","published":"2026-09-16T11:17:13Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-90011"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-90011"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-101213.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
