"value": "AV:L - The flaw is reached only via DEVLINK_CMD_PARAM_SET netlink to the octeontx2-af RVU Admin Function devlink \"nix_maxlf\" parameter; there is no remote packet, mbox, or ioctl path into rvu_af_dl_nix_maxlf_validate()/set().\nAC:L - A CAP_NET_ADMIN caller can deterministically attach NIX LFs (PF/VF netdev probe) and issue the devlink set in the window before MCAM entries are allocated; the buggy mcam->bmap_fcnt check is bypassed whenever LFs are assigned but the MCAM bitmap is still full.\nPR:L - DEVLINK_CMD_PARAM_SET requires GENL_ADMIN_PERM (CAP_NET_ADMIN). On OcteonTX2 cloud/edge servers the AF devlink is host-local admin surface reachable by any principal holding netdev admin capability, including container runtimes granted CAP_NET_ADMIN.\nUI:N - Exploitation is fully programmatic via devlink netlink and concurrent netdev bringup; no victim click, mount, or other interactive action is required beyond the attacker's own administrative commands.\nS:U - Impact is confined to kernel/AF driver state on the host managing the Marvell OcteonTX2 NIC; it does not cross a VM-hypervisor, IOMMU, or container sandbox boundary to compromise a separate security authority.\nC:H - Bypassing validation lets rvu_af_dl_nix_maxlf_set() change block->lf.max while LFs remain assigned, tear down MCAM tracking via npc_mcam_rsrcs_deinit(), and reinit with wrong nixlf_count, desynchronizing MCAM index math and enabling out-of-bounds reads of kmalloc'd MCAM metadata.\nI:H - The same desync corrupts MCAM entry2pfvf_map/entry2cntr_map bookkeeping and NIX LF resource maps while hardware LFs stay attached, giving attacker-influenced out-of-bounds writes during subsequent MCAM/NIX operations and a plausible path to kernel code execution.\nA:H - Forcing MCAM reinitialization and inconsistent LF limits on an active OcteonTX2 AF can panic/oops the kernel or wedge NIC packet processing on internet-facing servers and telco/cloud nodes that depend on this hardware for line-rate networking."
