CVE-2026-81012

Estado: RecibidaAlta (8.4)—

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

platform/x86: hp-bioscfg: fix off-by-one write in hp_get_string_from_buffer()

hp_get_string_from_buffer() clamps the converted string length against the destination buffer size with "size > dst_size", so when the converted length is exactly equal to dst_size, conv_dst_size is left at dst_size and the unconditional NUL terminator write

lands one byte past the destination buffer. This is the same shape of bug as the previously fixed off-by-one in hp_convert_hexstr_to_str(): the buffer is sized correctly for the content, but the terminator write is never checked against that size.

Leer descripción completaMostrar menos

Fix by changing the comparison to ">=" so conv_dst_size is always left with room for the terminator.

All fixed-size destinations that reach this function (path[512], current_value[512], current_password/current_value[64], and the per-entry buffers in encodings[][512] and prerequisites[][512]) are affected.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

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

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

Vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de búfer en kernel Linux (AV:L, PR:N, UI:N) que permite escritura de un byte fuera de límites. Local sin privilegios = T1068. Impacto: ejecución de código arbitrario o corrupción de memoria del kernel.

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
