In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/uverbs: Guard legacy bundles without method_elm
The legacy write() path dispatches through a uverbs_api_write_method, but
the uverbs_attr_bundle passed to provider code does not have an ioctl
method element. If malformed provider input causes the common uverbs
validation code to emit an error message, uverbs_get_handler_fn()
dereferences the uninitialized method_elm pointer.
Initialize method_elm explicitly for legacy bundles and make
uverbs_get_handler_fn() return NULL when no ioctl method is present. The
legacy dispatcher continues to use its local write method, while the ioctl
path continues to use the registered ioctl handler.
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
