CVE-2026-45886

Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Fix bpf_xdp_store_bytes proto for read-only arg

While making some maps in Cilium read-only from the BPF side, we noticed that the bpf_xdp_store_bytes proto is incorrect. In particular, the verifier was throwing the following error:

nat comes from a BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG map, so R3 is a PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE. The verifier checks the helper's memory access to R3 in check_mem_size_reg, as it reaches ARG_CONST_SIZE argument. The third argument has expected type ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM, which includes the MEM_WRITE flag. The verifier thus checks for a BPF_WRITE access on R3. Given R3 points to a read-only map, the check fails.

Conversely, ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM can also lead to the helper reading from uninitialized memory.

This patch simply fixes the expected argument type to match that of bpf_skb_store_bytes.
