CVE-2025-40252
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: qlogic/qede: fix potential out-of-bounds read in qede_tpa_cont() and qede_tpa_end()
The loops in 'qede_tpa_cont()' and 'qede_tpa_end()', iterate over 'cqe->len_list[]' using only a zero-length terminator as the stopping condition. If the terminator was missing or malformed, the loop could run past the end of the fixed-size array.
Add an explicit bound check using ARRAY_SIZE() in both loops to prevent a potential out-of-bounds access.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.60%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 47
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
