In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: do not pass flow_id to set_rps_cpu()
Blamed commit made the assumption that the RPS table for each receive queue would have the same size, and that it would not change.
Compute flow_id in set_rps_cpu(), do not assume we can use the value computed by get_rps_cpu(). Otherwise we risk out-of-bound access and/or crashes.
AnalysisAI
Out-of-bounds memory access in Linux kernel RPS (Receive Packet Steering) subsystem allows remote unauthenticated attackers to trigger kernel crashes or potentially achieve code execution with SYSTEM privileges. The flaw stems from incorrect assumptions about RPS hash table sizing across receive queues, introduced in commit 48aa30443e52. …

RemediationAI
Within 24 hours: Identify all Linux systems running affected kernel versions (pre-6.18.16, pre-6.19.6, pre-7.0) and assess exposure to untrusted network traffic. Within 7 days: Apply vendor patches-upgrade to kernel 6.18.16, 6.19.6, or 7.0+ depending on your stable branch, and reboot affected systems in maintenance windows. …
