In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-pcache: validate kset key_num and intra-segment bounds
Two more fields decoded from the cache device go unbounded. The kset
key_num drives cache_kset_crc() and the replay loop in cache_replay(),
the writeback worker and the GC worker, but only the magic and a
fixed-seed CRC are checked first, so a non-last kset whose key_num exceeds
the PCACHE_KSET_KEYS_MAX buffer reads past its end before the CRC compare.
A key's intra-segment offset and length in cache_key_decode() are taken
verbatim, so a key running past its segment is replayed into the cache
tree and the data CRC check and every later read hit then copy adjacent
persistent memory into the caller's bio -- an out-of-bounds read that
leaks to user space. Both fields are controlled by whoever supplies the
cache device (CAP_SYS_ADMIN); the CRC seed is public.
Add kset_onmedia_valid() to bound key_num before any kset read, and
reject a key whose offset plus length, computed in 64 bits, exceeds the
segment data_size. Valid metadata is unaffected.
SSVC (CISA's decision table, applied by EchelonGraph)Track at low or medium mission impact; Track* at high (mission-essential systems).
A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines.
Exploitation none (no CISA value, KEV listing or exploit code on record) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). EchelonGraph holds no SSVC assessment of this CVE from CISA: none of these inputs is from Vulnrichment. EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse". CISA's decision table
BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)14 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). Where an input reads “CISA's BOD 26-04 default”, no one has published it for this CVE, and CISA's implementation guidance says: “If “Automatable” and “Technical Impact” information items about a CVE ID are not available and the CVE ID is not in the KEV Catalog, CISA will treat its values as “no” and “total,” respectively, until CISA or a third party provides metadata about the CVE ID. CISA will always provide the Vulnrichment data for a CVE ID listed in the KEV Catalog.” Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer. BOD 26-04 binds US Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies; for anyone else it is CISA's published timeline, a reference rather than an obligation. The directive · how EchelonGraph applies it
