"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ntun: free page on short-frame rejection in tun_xdp_one()\n\ntun_xdp_one() returns -EINVAL on a frame shorter than ETH_HLEN without\nfreeing the page that vhost_net_build_xdp() allocated for it.\ntun_sendmsg() discards that -EINVAL and still returns total_len, so\nvhost_tx_batch() takes the success path and never frees the page; each\nshort frame in a batch leaks one page-frag chunk.\n\nA local process that can open /dev/net/tun and /dev/vhost-net can hit\nthis path: it attaches a tun/tap device as the vhost-net backend and\nfeeds TX descriptors whose length minus the virtio-net header is below\nETH_HLEN. Each kick leaks the page-frag chunks for that batch, and a\ntight submission loop exhausts host memory and triggers an OOM panic.\nFree the page before returning -EINVAL, matching the XDP-program error\npath in the same function."

"value": "AV:L - The flaw is reached via local host interfaces (/dev/net/tun and /dev/vhost-net ioctls/sendmsg) or from a KVM guest through virtio-net TX descriptors processed by vhost-net, not via remote network packets to the host stack.\nAC:L - An attacker reliably triggers the leak by repeatedly submitting TX frames whose length minus the virtio-net header is below ETH_HLEN; no races or attacker-uncontrollable layout conditions are required.\nPR:N - A malicious KVM guest on a host using vhost-net with a tun/tap backend needs no host privileges—only the ability to craft short virtio-net TX descriptors—while a direct host attacker can also obtain CAP_NET_ADMIN via unprivileged user namespaces.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires no victim interaction beyond normal VM or namespace operation; the attacker drives the vhost TX path directly in a tight loop.\nS:C - In the highest-impact cloud/KVM deployment, an unprivileged guest VM crosses the hypervisor security boundary to exhaust host kernel memory and panic the host, affecting resources outside the guest's security scope.\nC:N - The bug is a page-fragment memory leak with no out-of-bounds access, use-after-free, or information disclosure; freed pages are simply never returned to the allocator.\nI:N - No kernel memory corruption or data modification occurs; the only effect is unbounded consumption of page-frags leading to denial of service.\nA:H - Sustained submission of short batched frames leaks one page-frag per frame, exhausts host memory, and can trigger an OOM kernel panic as described in the fix commit."
