CVE-2026-93287

Estado: RecibidaAlta (7.8)—

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

i2c: smbus: reject oversized block transfers in the common path

The SMBus block transfer length data->block[0] is validated in i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() but that check runs too late for tracepoints and is skipped entirely when the adapter provides a native smbus_xfer implementation. This allows user-controlled oversized block lengths to reach tracepoint memcpy calls and driver callbacks unchecked.

Add an early validation in __i2c_smbus_xfer() that rejects block transfers whose caller-supplied length is zero or exceeds I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX before any tracepoint fires or driver callback runs. data->block[0] is filled in by the device on SMBus block reads, so the check is scoped to operations where the length is actually supplied by the caller.

This is consistent with the existing -EINVAL convention in the emulated path and protects all downstream consumers at once: the smbus_write tracepoint, all native smbus_xfer driver implementations, and the emulated path.

Two distinct bugs are fixed by this change:

Both traces reproduced on v7.0-rc6+i2c/for-current with KASAN+UBSAN.

Detalles técnicos trazas, registros y código del informe original
Bug 1: smbus_write tracepoint OOB (include/trace/events/smbus.h)
  trace_smbus_write() fires before any validation and copies
  data->block[0]+1 bytes into a 34-byte event buffer. With
  block[0]=0xfe the tracepoint copies 255 bytes, overflowing by 221.

Bug 2: i2c-stub I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA OOB (drivers/i2c/i2c-stub.c)
  stub_xfer() implements .smbus_xfer directly and only clamps
  block[0] against 256-command, not I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX. With
  block[0]=0xff and command=0 the loop accesses block[1+i] for
  i up to 254, far past the 34-byte union.

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 de escalada de privilegios en kernel Linux (AV:L, PR:L) que permite un usuario local causar desbordamiento de búfer en el subsistema i2c-smbus, resultando en DoS y potencial lectura 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.
