{"id":"AZL-104468","summary":"CVE-2026-98025 affecting package kernel 6.6.157.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: usb: cx82310_eth: drop URB after 0xffff reboot sentinel to prevent partial_data heap overflow\n\nThe 0xffff length sentinel detects a router reboot and schedules\nre-enabling of ethernet mode, but then falls through to the rest\nof the loop body.  The next check is\n\n\t} else if (len \u003e CX82310_MTU) {\n\nwhich is the else of the just-matched if -- it never fires for\nlen == 0xffff.  The MTU bound that normally caps the\nincomplete-packet save path is silently bypassed.\n\nWith 0xffff \u003e skb-\u003elen always true (rx_urb_size is 4096), the\nincomplete-packet branch saves dev-\u003epartial_len = skb-\u003elen bytes\ninto dev-\u003epartial_data.  partial_data is kmalloc(hard_mtu) =\nkmalloc(CX82310_MTU + 2) = 1516 bytes, but skb-\u003elen after the\n2-byte header pull can be up to 4094.  A device that sends a\n4096-byte URB starting with [0xff 0xff] therefore copies 4094\ndevice-provided bytes into a buffer allocated for 1516 bytes,\nexceeding its requested size by 2578 bytes.\n\nThe next URB then reads dev-\u003epartial_len (4094) back from the same\n1516-byte buffer and dev-\u003epartial_rem (65535 - 4094 = 61441) from\nthe new URB's ~4KB skb, both well past their allocations, and\ndelivers the spliced result as a 64KB \"frame\" to the network\nstack.\n\nBail out of rx_fixup after scheduling the re-enable work; the\nremainder of a reboot-marker URB is not meaningful packet data.\nThis restores the invariant that partial_len \u003c CX82310_MTU + 2 on\nthe save path, since every other route there has already passed\nthe MTU check.","modified":"2026-09-27T05:34:32Z","published":"2026-09-25T11:17:31Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-98025"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-98025"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.157.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-104468.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
