wifi: radiotap: reject radiotap with unknown bits

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.12% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 129c8bb320a7cef692c78056ef8e89a2a12ba448, 2a60c588d5d39ad187628f58395c776a97fd4323, 2f8ceeba670610d66f77def32011f48de951d781; azl3 kernel 6.6.126.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.130.1-1; cbl2 kernel 5.15.202.1-1 on CBL-Mariner 2.0 Release Notes.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 129c8bb320a7cef692c78056ef8e89a2a12ba448, 2a60c588d5d39ad187628f58395c776a97fd4323, 2f8ceeba670610d66f77def32011f48de951d781; azl3 kernel 6.6.126.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.130.1-1; cbl2 kernel 5.15.202.1-1 on CBL-Mariner 2.0 Release Notes or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: radiotap: reject radiotap with unknown bits The radiotap parser is currently only used with the radiotap namespace (not with vendor namespaces), but if the undefined field 18 is used, the alignment/size is unknown as well. In this case, iterator->_next_ns_data isn't initialized (it's only set for skipping vendor namespaces), and syzbot points out that we later compare against this uninitialized value. Fix this by moving the rejection of unknown radiotap fields down to after the in-namespace lookup, so it will really use iterator->_next_ns_data only for vendor namespaces, even in case undefined fields are present.

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
