CVE-2026-64527CVE-2026-64527
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/hyperv: validate VMBus packet size in receive callback
hyperv_receive_sub() reads msg->vid_hdr.type and dispatches into one
of four message-type branches without knowing how many bytes the host
wrote into hv->recv_buf. The completion path then runs
memcpy(hv->init_buf, msg, VMBUS_MAX_PACKET_SIZE), so the consumer that
wakes on wait_for_completion_timeout() can read up to 16 KiB of
residue from a prior message as if it were the response payload.
Pass bytes_recvd into hyperv_receive_sub() and reject any packet that
does not cover the pipe + synthvid header. A single switch on
msg->vid_hdr.type then computes the type-specific payload size: the
three completion-driving types (SYNTHVID_VERSION_RESPONSE,
SYNTHVID_RESOLUTION_RESPONSE, SYNTHVID_VRAM_LOCATION_ACK) fall through
to a shared exit that requires that size before memcpy/complete, while
SYNTHVID_FEATURE_CHANGE validates its own payload and returns before
readin
