CVE-2026-31494CVE-2026-31494
linux / linux_kernel
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: macb: use the current queue number for stats
There's a potential mismatch between the memory reserved for statistics
and the amount of memory written.
gem_get_sset_count() correctly computes the number of stats based on the
active queues, whereas gem_get_ethtool_stats() indiscriminately copies
data using the maximum number of queues, and in the case the number of
active queues is less than MACB_MAX_QUEUES, this results in a OOB write
as observed in the KASAN splat.
