DescriptionCVE.org

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

net: usb: net1080: validate packet_len before pad-byte access in rx_fixup

For an even packet_len, net1080_rx_fixup() reads the pad byte at skb->data[packet_len] before the skb->len != packet_len check further down, and packet_len is only bounded against NC_MAX_PACKET. A malicious NetChip 1080 device can send a short frame advertising a large even packet_len (e.g. 0x4000), so the pad-byte read lands past the end of the skb:

BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in net1080_rx_fixup Read of size 1 at addr ffff8880106c83c6 by task ksoftirqd/0/14 ... net1080_rx_fixup (drivers/net/usb/net1080.c:384) usbnet_bh (drivers/net/usb/usbnet.c:1589) process_one_work (kernel/workqueue.c:3322) bh_worker (kernel/workqueue.c:3708) tasklet_action (kernel/softirq.c:965) handle_softirqs (kernel/softirq.c:622) ...

Reject the frame when packet_len >= skb->len before reading.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds read in the Linux kernel's net1080 USB networking driver allows a malicious NetChip 1080 (NC1080) USB device to read slab memory past the end of a socket buffer during RX processing. In net1080_rx_fixup(), an even attacker-controlled packet_len is used to index a pad byte (skb->data[packet_len]) before it is validated against the actual frame length, so a short frame advertising a large even packet_len (e.g. 0x4000, bounded only by NC_MAX_PACKET) triggers a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read in softirq/ksoftirqd context. This is a vendor-fixed kernel hardening bug with no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is low (0.18%) and it is not in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

The affected component is drivers/net/usb/net1080.c, the usbnet mini-driver for the NetChip 1080 USB-to-USB host-to-host networking bridge, which runs on top of the shared usbnet framework (usbnet_bh -> net1080_rx_fixup). The driver's rx_fixup routine parses a NetChip framing header to recover packet_len and, for even lengths, inspects a trailing pad byte. The root cause is a classic CWE-125 out-of-bounds read (the input tags label this 'Buffer Overflow'): packet_len is bounded only against NC_MAX_PACKET and the pad byte at skb->data[packet_len] is dereferenced before the skb->len != packet_len sanity check executes, so a device-supplied length larger than the buffer indexes past the allocated slab object. The fix reorders validation to reject frames where packet_len >= skb->len before any pad-byte access.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update to a fixed stable kernel - 5.10.261, 5.15.212, 6.1.178, 6.6.145, 6.12.97, 6.18.40, 7.1.5, or mainline >= 7.2-rc3 (or your distribution's kernel that backports the corresponding git.kernel.org/stable/c/ commit such as f42217fa7d53 or 685e92934f11) - which adds the packet_len >= skb->len check before the pad-byte read. Where immediate patching is not possible, the highest-impact compensating control is to prevent the vulnerable driver from binding: blacklist/unload the net1080 module (e.g. an /etc/modprobe.d entry with 'blacklist net1080' plus 'install net1080 /bin/false'), which fully removes exposure at the cost of losing NetChip 1080 host-to-host bridge functionality (a feature almost no production system uses). Additionally enforce USB device authorization / USBGuard policies or disable untrusted USB ports so attacker-supplied USB NICs cannot enumerate, accepting the operational trade-off of managing an allowlist for legitimate USB peripherals. Confirm the exact fixed version against your distribution's advisory before deploying.
