"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetfilter: nft_payload: incorrect arithmetics when fetching VLAN header bits\n\nIf the offset + length goes over the ethernet + vlan header, then the\nlength is adjusted to copy the bytes that are within the boundaries of\nthe vlan_ethhdr scratchpad area. The remaining bytes beyond ethernet +\nvlan header are copied directly from the skbuff data area.\n\nFix incorrect arithmetic operator: subtract, not add, the size of the\nvlan header in case of double-tagged packets to adjust the length\naccordingly to address CVE-2023-0179."

"value": "AV:L - The bug is reached by installing crafted nftables nft_payload rules via netlink and then processing packets in that chain; netfilter/nftables rule install is a local attack surface, not remote pre-auth packet parsing alone.\nAC:L - An attacker fully controls the prerequisites by creating VLAN interfaces and nftables rules in their own netns and sending packets that hit the path; public PoCs trigger the overflow reliably with no races or luck.\nPR:L - CAP_NET_ADMIN is required for nfnetlink/nftables, but it is obtainable by an unprivileged user via user+network namespaces (unshare -Urn), which scores as Low per kernel CNA guidance.\nUI:N - The attacker installs rules and triggers packet evaluation themselves; no victim action is required.\nS:U - Impact is local kernel memory corruption and privilege escalation within the host kernel authority, not a cross-boundary escape such as guest-to-host or IOMMU bypass.\nC:H - The stack OOB write overwrites adjacent nft_regs and enables reliable leakage of stack/heap kernel addresses (KASLR defeat), giving a high-impact confidentiality compromise.\nI:H - Controlled stack overflow of regs/jumpstack enables expression/control-flow hijacking and demonstrated arbitrary kernel write (e.g. modprobe_path) for local root.\nA:H - Corrupt jumpstack/rule pointers readily cause kernel GPFs and panics, so availability impact is complete host crash."
