A malicious remote peer can send a crafted fragmented RxRPC ACK for an active transmitting call.\nAC:L - The needed fragmented/non-linear skb and ACK fields are attacker-controlled packet properties, and valid call state can be created by participating as the RxRPC peer. No race or condition outside the attacker's control is required.\nPR:N - The vulnerable parser is reached from network packet receive after protocol matching checks, not after any local privilege check. A remote RxRPC peer does not need an account or kernel privilege on the target.\nUI:N - Once an RxRPC service/client call exists, the malicious ACK is processed automatically by the kernel receive path. No victim user action is needed to parse the packet.\nS:U - The corruption occurs inside the target kernel's networking/RxRPC memory management context. It does not inherently cross into another security authority such as a hypervisor boundary.\nC:H - The bug performs out-of-bounds reads past the skb linear area into kernel memory while parsing attacker-supplied ACK state. As kernel memory corruption with read exposure potential, confidentiality impact is high.\nI:H - The soft-ACK loop performs read-modify-write shifts through the out-of-bounds pointer, corrupting skb tailroom, skb_shared_info, or adjacent slab memory. This is an out-of-bounds write primitive in kernel memory.\nA:H - Corrupting skb metadata or adjacent kernel objects can readily trigger an oops, panic, or memory-management failure. The crafted ACK can be sent repeatedly to sustain denial of service." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "net/rxrpc/input.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "d57a3a151660902091491ac2633134e1be92557f", "lessThan": "5d1ae4e17a3ecd8561cdb4f4f70152f41039c4e1", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "d57a3a151660902091491ac2633134e1be92557f", "lessThan": "775c5e89272a2615b72bb84f611ba66fa3b7493e", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "d57a3a151660902091491ac2633134e1be92557f", "lessThan": "566c4c1244de50fbff1f89ff93c9d7b0fc256db4", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "d57a3a151660902091491ac2633134e1be92557f", "lessThan": "224298450be5c04d2a6ea1c2a94669d7ebf65d00", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "d57a3a151660902091491ac2633134e1be92557f", "lessThan": "333b6d5bb9f87827ac2639c737bf9613dbae7253", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "net/rxrpc/input.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.2", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.2", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.144", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.95", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.36", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.0.13", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.0.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.2", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.144" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.2", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.95" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.2", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.36" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.2", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.13" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.2", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5d1ae4e17a3ecd8561cdb4f4f70152f41039c4e1" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/775c5e89272a2615b72bb84f611ba66fa3b7493e" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/566c4c1244de50fbff1f89ff93c9d7b0fc256db4" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/224298450be5c04d2a6ea1c2a94669d7ebf65d00" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/333b6d5bb9f87827ac2639c737bf9613dbae7253" } ], "title": "rxrpc: Fix the ACK parser to extract the SACK table for parsing", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "metrics": [ { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "id": "CVE-2026-53151", "role": "CISA Coordinator", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "yes" }, { "Technical Impact": "total" } ], "version": "2.0.3", "timestamp": "2026-10-16T15:26:03.906591Z" } } } ], "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "lang": "en", "type": "CWE", "cweId": "CWE-125", "description": "CWE-125 Out-of-bounds Read" } ] } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2026-10-19T19:57:25.967Z" } } ] } }
