"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ncxl/features: bound fwctl command payload to the input buffer\n\nfwctl_cmd_rpc() copies cmd->in_len bytes into inbuf = kvzalloc(cmd->in_len)\nand passes inbuf and in_len to ->fw_rpc(). The CXL callback cxlctl_fw_rpc()\nignores in_len and never checks the user-controlled op_size against it.\n\ncxlctl_set_feature() bounds op_size only from below\n(op_size <= sizeof(feat_in->hdr)) and then reads op_size - sizeof(hdr)\nbytes from feat_in->feat_data via cxl_set_feature(). With a small in_len\nand a large op_size the first memcpy() already reads past the\nkvzalloc(in_len) buffer; the out-of-bounds bytes are placed in the mailbox\npayload and sent to the device, and a large enough op_size can walk into\nunmapped memory and oops the kernel. The Get paths pin op_size to a fixed\nsize but likewise read the input struct without checking in_len.\n\nReject, at the single dispatch point, any request whose fixed header plus\nop_size does not fit in the copied-in buffer. The lower-bound test guards\nthe subtraction and ensures op_size was copied in before it is read."

"value": "AV:L - The bug is reached only via local ioctl(FWCTL_RPC) on /dev/fwctl/fwctlN through fwctl_fops_ioctl()->fwctl_cmd_rpc()->cxlctl_fw_rpc(); CXL features/fwctl has no network, adjacent-radio, or physical-bus entry point.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls fwctl_rpc.in_len and fwctl_rpc_cxl.op_size; a short in_len with a large op_size, or in_len=0, deterministically over-reads the kvzalloc buffer or dereferences ZERO_SIZE_PTR. No race or attacker-uncontrollable layout is required.\nPR:L - GET commands run at FWCTL_RPC_CONFIGURATION with no capability check, and SET_FEATURE for reset-effect features needs only FWCTL_RPC_DEBUG_WRITE (no CAP_SYS_RAWIO). Per CNA fwctl precedent, /dev/fwctl access is routinely granted to management/VMM users without init-namespace root.\nUI:N - The attacker opens the fwctl device and issues the RPC ioctl themselves; no victim action such as mounting a filesystem or opening a file is required.\nS:U - The heap over-read, mailbox copy, and any oops stay inside the host kernel CXL/fwctl code. This is ordinary same-host kernel impact, not a VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or other changed-scope boundary.\nC:H - cxl_set_feature() memcpy()s attacker-chosen op_size bytes from past the kvzalloc(in_len) buffer into the CXL mailbox and to the device; that unbounded kernel-heap over-read is C:H per kernel CNA guidance, and GET_FEATURE can return stored feature data including leaked heap.\nI:N - The defect is a read-only over-read into a newly allocated mailbox buffer sent to the device; there is no kernel out-of-bounds write, use-after-free, or control-flow hijack primitive.\nA:H - A large op_size walks from the short kvzalloc buffer into unmapped memory and oopses, and in_len=0 makes kvzalloc return ZERO_SIZE_PTR so reading opcode faults; either path panics the kernel and is repeatable at will."
