{"id":"AZL-97140","summary":"CVE-2026-74694 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/ncsi: fix heap OOB read in NCSI_CMD_SEND_CMD payload length\n\nncsi_send_cmd_nl() takes the number of bytes to copy from the\nattacker-controlled ncsi_pkt_hdr.length field of the in-band packet\nheader, while the source buffer is the NCSI_ATTR_DATA netlink\nattribute whose readable size is nla_len() - sizeof(ncsi_pkt_hdr).\nThe two length sources are never cross-checked: only\nnla_len() \u003e= sizeof(struct ncsi_pkt_hdr) is enforced.\n\nWith hdr-\u003elength set larger than the attribute payload (up to 65535\nagainst at most 2032 readable bytes), ncsi_cmd_handler_oem() copies\npast the end of the netlink attribute buffer with unsafe_memcpy(),\nleaking up to ~64KB of kernel heap memory into the transmitted NCSI\ncommand packet. The destination skb is sized by the declared payload,\nso the write side does not overflow - this is a pure OOB read /\ninformation leak, reachable with CAP_NET_ADMIN on systems with a\nregistered NCSI device (e.g. OpenBMC on Aspeed BMC SoCs, where\nNET_NCSI=y is standard).\n\nReject commands whose declared payload extends past the end of the\ndata attribute.\n\nThe issue was found by the autokbug dynamic kernel fuzzer at Tencent\nYunding Lab.","modified":"2026-08-30T05:26:50Z","published":"2026-08-22T16:16:43Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-74694"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-74694"}],"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-97140.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
