"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nice: fix wrong fallback logic for FDIR\n\nWhen adding a FDIR filter, if ice_vc_fdir_set_irq_ctx returns failure,\nthe inserted fdir entry will not be removed and if ice_vc_fdir_write_fltr\nreturns failure, the fdir context info for irq handler will not be cleared\nwhich may lead to inconsistent or memory leak issue. This patch refines\nfailure cases to resolve this issue."

{
"lang": "en",
"value": "AV:L - The bug is reached only via virtchnl mailbox messages sent by a Virtual Function over the PCIe/admin-queue interface, not from network packets; the attacker must be attached to the machine as a VF owner (typically a passed-through SR-IOV device in a guest VM).\nAC:L - The failing path is `ice_vc_fdir_set_irq_ctx()` returning -EBUSY, which the VF triggers deterministically by issuing two ADD_FDIR_FILTER requests inside the ~10 ms in-flight window it fully controls; heap reclaim of the freed `conf` uses the identical same-size devm allocation issued by simply adding more filters.\nPR:L - From the perspective of the vulnerable component (the host PF driver), the attacker holds only the low privilege of controlling an assigned VF — no host credentials, no capability check, and no authorization exists on the virtchnl handler path beyond the opcode allowlist.\nUI:N - Exploitation is entirely driven by mailbox messages the attacker emits; no action by a host administrator or any other user is needed.\nS:C - The attacker acts from a VF (normally owned by an untrusted guest/tenant) while the corrupted IDR, list and freed memory belong to the host PF driver, so the impact crosses the guest-to-host security authority boundary — consistent with how sibling i40e VF→PF CVEs are scored.\nC:H - The dangling IDR entry lets a subsequent DEL_FDIR_FILTER read the reclaimed object and program hardware filter state from it, and the corrupted list is walked on every later add, giving use-after-free reads of arbitrary host kernel heap contents.\nI:H - The stale `fltr_node` yields `list_del()`/`list_add()` writes through attacker-groomed freed memory, and `ice_vc_fdir_flush_entry()` double-frees the same `conf`, providing write and heap-metadata corruption primitives sufficient for control-flow hijack in the host kernel.\nA:H - Use-after-free, list corruption and double free in the host PF driver reliably produce oops/panic and can be re-triggered at will by the VF, taking down the host and every other tenant sharing the adapter."
