It is not directly triggerable by unauthenticated network packets alone.\nAC:L - The attacker can create the needed partial-send condition by controlling the TCP peer or receiver behavior and filling the send buffer, then issuing another send. No race or condition outside attacker control is required.\nPR:L - Setting an already-registered TCP ULP does not require CAP_NET_ADMIN, and ordinary local users can create TCP sockets and call setsockopt/sendmsg. XFRM administration is privileged, but it is not required for this lowest-privilege path to `espintcp_sendmsg`.\nUI:N - Exploitation does not require any victim user action after the attacker has local code execution. The attacker directly drives the socket operations.\nS:U - The impact remains within the kernel and its managed resources on the same host. This is not a VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or cross-authority boundary violation.\nC:H - The stale partial-send offset can produce an out-of-bounds read in the TCP send path, potentially exposing kernel memory through transmitted data. Because the read is not strictly bounded to a small fixed disclosure, high confidentiality impact is appropriate.\nI:H - The corrupted espintcp/sk_msg state can build invalid bvec/socket-buffer references and disturb page or send-buffer accounting, which is a plausible kernel memory integrity primitive. Under the required higher-severity rule for uncertainty, this is scored as high integrity impact.\nA:H - The invalid scatterlist/bvec state can lead to kernel warnings, invalid page references, refcount/accounting corruption, or crashes in the send/cleanup path. A local attacker can repeat the trigger, so availability impact is high."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["net/xfrm/espintcp.c"], "versions": [{"version": "e27cca96cd68fa2c6814c90f9a1cfd36bb68c593", "lessThan": "6564e9c7af7e1dc7bfe7f3093b728abe484d7630", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "e27cca96cd68fa2c6814c90f9a1cfd36bb68c593", "lessThan": "1777ceac4bea5e568a5ad44b7f9bb219c1db21b6", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "e27cca96cd68fa2c6814c90f9a1cfd36bb68c593", "lessThan": "8c6c691bf062dc0753a139a4ab8cb92a70fcf8f3", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "e27cca96cd68fa2c6814c90f9a1cfd36bb68c593", "lessThan": "aa82a078f70f7ff88ba7d1017134e79d1ac140f2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "e27cca96cd68fa2c6814c90f9a1cfd36bb68c593", "lessThan": "ba21439302db9a82fe4edbed1e38a97271529421", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "e27cca96cd68fa2c6814c90f9a1cfd36bb68c593", "lessThan": "f9b38a8fbfa07f1deaf7ee1eb38fa8b21ea13990", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "e27cca96cd68fa2c6814c90f9a1cfd36bb68c593", "lessThan": "37487d55bf3300e3d2c1368da5c2bd3e3834ea4f", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "e27cca96cd68fa2c6814c90f9a1cfd36bb68c593", "lessThan": "c381039ade2e161ab08c0eda73c4f8b9a7115928", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["net/xfrm/espintcp.c"], "versions": [{"version": "5.6", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "5.6", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "5.10.259", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.10.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "5.15.210", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.15.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.1.176", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.6.143", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.94", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.36", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.0.13", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.0.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.1", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.6", "versionEndExcluding": "5.10.259"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.6", "versionEndExcluding": "5.15.210"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.6", "versionEndExcluding": "6.1.176"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.6", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.143"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.6", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.94"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.6", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.36"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.6", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.13"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "5.6", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6564e9c7af7e1dc7bfe7f3093b728abe484d7630"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1777ceac4bea5e568a5ad44b7f9bb219c1db21b6"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8c6c691bf062dc0753a139a4ab8cb92a70fcf8f3"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/aa82a078f70f7ff88ba7d1017134e79d1ac140f2"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ba21439302db9a82fe4edbed1e38a97271529421"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f9b38a8fbfa07f1deaf7ee1eb38fa8b21ea13990"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/37487d55bf3300e3d2c1368da5c2bd3e3834ea4f"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c381039ade2e161ab08c0eda73c4f8b9a7115928"}], "title": "xfrm: espintcp: do not reuse an in-progress partial send", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
