"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbnxt_en: Mask the bd_cnt field in the TX BD properly\n\nThe bd_cnt field in the TX BD specifies the total number of BDs for\nthe TX packet. The bd_cnt field has 5 bits and the maximum number\nsupported is 32 with the value 0.\n\nCONFIG_MAX_SKB_FRAGS can be modified and the total number of SKB\nfragments can approach or exceed the maximum supported by the chip.\nAdd a macro to properly mask the bd_cnt field so that the value 32\nwill be properly masked and set to 0 in the bd_cnd field.\n\nWithout this patch, the out-of-range bd_cnt value will corrupt the\nTX BD and may cause TX timeout.\n\nThe next patch will check for values exceeding 32."

"value": "AV:N - bnxt_en is a datacenter NIC typically deployed on routing/bridging/VM hosts, where an unauthenticated remote peer's burst of segments is coalesced by GRO into an skb with 30+ fragments and forwarded out the bnxt port, reaching bnxt_start_xmit() with no linearization because the driver advertises NETIF_F_SG.\nAC:L - On a kernel built with CONFIG_MAX_SKB_FRAGS >= 30 (the configuration in which the flaw exists, used in BIG TCP deployments), the attacker reliably drives the fragment count simply by sending a sustained burst, with no race or memory-layout condition to win.\nPR:N - In the forwarding scenario the trigger is ordinary unauthenticated network traffic transiting the host; no credentials or local account are needed, and the locally-reachable variant requires only an unprivileged socket.\nUI:N - Transmission happens automatically as part of normal packet forwarding or socket I/O; no victim action is required.\nS:U - The malformed descriptor, ring desynchronization, and subsequent device reset are all confined to the host kernel and its NIC, within a single security authority.\nC:L - The mis-parsed bd_cnt makes the chip consume descriptors beyond those the driver posted, so stale ring entries pointing at already-unmapped buffers can be DMA'd and emitted onto the wire, exposing a bounded amount of freed kernel buffer content to the attacker's network.\nI:L - The corrupted bd_cnt and length-hint bits cause mis-framed and truncated frames to be placed on the wire, and the resulting completion desync leads to dma_unmap calls with mismatched address/length against buffers the NIC still owns.\nA:H - The commit states the out-of-range bd_cnt corrupts the TX BD and causes TX timeout; the desynchronized completion path hits WARN_ON_ONCE(1) in bnxt_sched_reset_txr() and queues BNXT_RESET_TASK_SP_EVENT, forcing a full device reset and repeatable loss of network connectivity (an immediate panic on panic_on_warn systems)."
