CVE-2025-38568

CVSS v3.1

7.8

High

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description: A stack out-of-bounds write issue exists in the tc entry parsing within the mqprio module of the Linux kernel. The TCA MQPRIO TC ENTRY INDEX is validated using NLA POLICY MAX(NLA U32, TC QOPT MAX QUEUE), allowing a value of TC QOPT MAX QUEUE (16). This leads to a 4-byte out-of-bounds write in the fp[] array, which has a capacity of 16 elements (0–15).
Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
