"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmacsec: don't read an unset MAC header in macsec_encrypt()\n\nmacsec_encrypt() reads the Ethernet header via eth_hdr(skb)\n(skb->head + skb->mac_header) to memmove() the 12 source/destination MAC\nbytes forward and make room for the SecTAG.\n\nOn the AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW + PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS transmit path the skb\nreaches the macsec ndo_start_xmit() with the MAC header unset, so\neth_hdr(skb) resolves to skb->head + (u16)~0 and the read is out of\nbounds: a 12-byte heap over-read that is also emitted on the wire as the\nframe's outer source/destination MAC. KASAN reports a slab-out-of-bounds\nread in macsec_start_xmit() on 6.0; on current mainline a CONFIG_DEBUG_NET\nbuild flags it as an unset mac header in skb_mac_header().\n\nOn the TX path the L2 header is at skb->data, so use skb_eth_hdr(), added\nby commit 96cc4b69581d (\"macvlan: do not assume mac_header is set in\nmacvlan_broadcast()\") for exactly this purpose."

"value": "AV:L - The bug is reached only via local AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW transmit with PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS to a macsec netdev; it is a TX-only ndo_start_xmit path, not reachable from remote network packet reception.\nAC:L - An attacker fully controls the trigger: create a raw packet socket with a specific ethertype, enable PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS, and send a frame on a configured macsec interface with protect_frames enabled.\nPR:L - Exploitation requires CAP_NET_RAW for AF_PACKET and CAP_NET_ADMIN to create/configure a macsec netdev and TX SA keys; both are obtainable by an unprivileged user inside a user namespace with delegated capabilities.\nUI:N - No victim interaction is required; the attacker sends crafted frames directly through the vulnerable transmit path without any action from another user or administrator.\nS:U - Impact is confined to kernel heap disclosure and possible kernel crash on the same host; it does not cross a VM, container, or IOMMU security boundary to affect a separate authority.\nC:H - eth_hdr(skb) performs a 12-byte slab out-of-bounds heap read when mac_header is unset; the leaked kernel memory is copied into the transmitted frame's source/destination MAC fields, disclosing sensitive heap contents.\nI:L - The memmove in macsec_encrypt() overwrites the outgoing frame's 12-byte Ethernet addresses with leaked heap data, causing unauthorized modification of transmitted packet contents without arbitrary kernel memory writes.\nA:H - Reading from skb->head plus unset mac_header offset 65535 causes a slab out-of-bounds access that KASAN flags and can page-fault into a kernel oops or panic when macsec_encrypt() runs on affected builds."
