CVE-2026-90051

Estado: RecibidaAlta (7.8)—

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

tcp: reject non zerocopy devmem tx

Devmem tcp tx doesn't work without zero-copy, however it's not currently enforced if NETIF_F_SG isn't present. In this case, tcp_sendmsg_locked() will try the copy path and try to copy data from an iovec which consists of offsets into the dma-buf and would normally fail. Moreover, d9c56501c72fd ("net: tcp: block mixing readable and unreadable frags") relies on that and assumes that the devmem binding is present IFF we're using the zero-copy path, which can be used to mix net-iov and pages in a single skb, and break invariants. Let's reject devmem tx without zero-copy.

Note, the parameter check the patch is modifying is too loose, we can create an io_uring request with dmabuf_id and all ZC flags, but which won't have the binding. We replace it with stricter validation.

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 local en kernel Linux (AV:L PR:L) explotable para escalar privilegios o causar DoS; el fallo de validación permite mezclar fragmentos de memoria en skb violando invariantes, causando corrupción o caída.

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.
