CVE-2026-23327
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/mbox: validate payload size before accessing contents in cxl_payload_from_user_allowed()
cxl_payload_from_user_allowed() casts and dereferences the input payload without first verifying its size. When a raw mailbox command is sent with an undersized payload (ie: 1 byte for CXL_MBOX_OP_CLEAR_LOG, which expects a 16-byte UUID), uuid_equal() reads past the allocated buffer, triggering a KASAN splat:
Add 'in_size' parameter to cxl_payload_from_user_allowed() and validate the payload is large enough.
