{

"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable helper runs from `sk_psock_msg_verdict()` on the local egress path, requiring a locally loaded BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_MSG program attached to a sockmap plus a local `sendmsg()` on a sockmap'd socket; there is no remote packet path into `bpf_msg_pop_data()` since SK_MSG programs only process data the local host is sending.\nAC:L - The bug is fully deterministic and entirely attacker-controlled — the sender chooses the write size that splits the message across scatterlist elements (making `offset != 0`), and the BPF program chooses a `start` that lands in a later element, so `a = start` is guaranteed to exceed `sge->length` with no race, timing, or memory-layout dependency.\nPR:L - Setting up the sockmap and SK_MSG program requires CAP_BPF and CAP_NET_ADMIN, but `bpf_token_capable()` grants these at `ns_capable()` level inside a user namespace via delegated BPF tokens, and both capabilities are routinely handed to container workloads, so an ordinary unprivileged-in-init-ns user can reach this path.\nUI:N - No victim action is required — the attacker loads the SK_MSG program and issues the triggering `sendmsg()` entirely on their own, with no file to open, filesystem to mount, or third party to interact with.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds reads, heap overflow, and scatterlist-ring corruption are all confined to the kernel's own memory and the socket's psock state; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The corrupted scatterlist entry carries an inflated `length` (up to ~4 GB after the signed-to-unsigned wrap of `b`) and an `offset` past the page, and `tcp_bpf_push()` hands those verbatim to `tcp_sendmsg_locked()` with MSG_SPLICE_PAGES, transmitting arbitrary adjacent kernel heap memory to the socket peer; the `!space` path additionally performs `memcpy(to, from, a)` reading far past the source element.\nI:H - In the no-space branch `memcpy(to, from, a)` and `memcpy(to + a, from + a + pop, b)` write attacker-sized data past an undersized `alloc_pages()` allocation — a controlled heap buffer overflow — and the missing `put_page()` plus the stray `sk_msg_iter_var_next()` rotate the entire sg ring, installing stale `struct page *` values that produce refcount imbalance and use-after-free of pages.\nA:H - A negative `b` passed to `memcpy()` as `size_t`, a scatterlist entry pointing far outside its page, and `sk_msg_shift_left()` corrupting the whole fragment ring all lead directly to kernel oops/panic, while the missing `put_page()` permanently leaks a page per popped element."
