"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ncan: bcm: fix stale rx/tx ops after device removal\n\nRX: an RX_SETUP update(!) for an existing op skipped can_rx_register()\nunconditionally, even when a concurrent NETDEV_UNREGISTER had already\ntorn down its registration (op->rx_reg_dev == NULL). This silently\ndid not re-enable frame delivery for that updated filter. bcm_rx_setup()\nnow re-registers in that case, while leaving rx_ops with ifindex = 0\n(all CAN devices) which never carry a tracked rx_reg_dev registered as-is.\n\nTX: bcm_notify() only handled bo->rx_ops on NETDEV_UNREGISTER, leaving\ntx_ops with an active cyclic transmission re-arming its hrtimer\nindefinitely to execute bcm_tx_timeout_handler(). Cancelling the hrtimer\nprevents the runaway timer and any injection into a later reused ifindex,\nsince nothing else calls bcm_can_tx() for the op until an explicit\nTX_SETUP update re-arms it.\n\nUnlike bcm_rx_unreg(), which clears the tracked rx_reg_dev for rx_ops,\nthe ifindex is intentionally left unchanged for tx_ops. bcm_tx_setup()\nalways rejects ifindex 0, so clearing it would strand the op: neither a\nlater TX_SETUP (bcm_find_op()) nor TX_DELETE (bcm_delete_tx_op()) could\never find it again, since both require an exact ifindex match."

"value": "AV:L - The bug is reached only via local PF_CAN/CAN_BCM syscalls (socket/connect/sendmsg TX_SETUP or RX_SETUP); bcm_tx_timeout_handler() is driven by a local hrtimer, not by remote network services or CAN bus frames alone.\nAC:L - An attacker controls both sides by arming cyclic TX with SETTIMER/STARTTIMER, then triggering or waiting for NETDEV_UNREGISTER (e.g., concurrent ip link del in a user namespace) while ifindex reuse is normal kernel behavior, making injection reliably achievable.\nPR:L - can_create(), bcm_connect(), and bcm_sendmsg() perform no capability checks; any local user with CAN access (or CAP_NET_ADMIN in an unprivileged user namespace to create vcan) can open BCM sockets and program cyclic TX/RX ops.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires only the attacker opening a BCM socket and sending TX_SETUP/RX_SETUP messages; no victim action such as mounting media or opening files is needed once local CAN access exists.\nS:U - Impact is unauthorized CAN transmission/monitoring disruption within the same kernel host; it does not cross VM, container, or IOMMU security boundaries even when frames reach an adjacent vehicle or factory CAN segment.\nC:N - The flaw causes stale timer-driven transmission and missed RX re-registration, not kernel memory disclosure; no out-of-bounds read, UAF, or other information-leak primitive is present in this bug.\nI:H - After NETDEV_UNREGISTER, orphaned tx_ops keep bcm_can_tx() running with a stale ifindex, so attacker-crafted cyclic CAN frames can be injected onto any later netdev that reuses that ifindex, including safety-critical automotive or industrial buses.\nA:H - Uncancelled hrtimers on stale tx_ops re-arm bcm_tx_timeout_handler() indefinitely after device removal, causing persistent timer/softirq CPU consumption, and the RX_SETUP path can silently stop frame delivery after unregister races."
