LIN1024-1319 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2021-47240

Created: May 21, 2024    Updated: Jan 7, 2026
Resolved Date: May 22, 2024
Found In Version: 10.24.33.1
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 24
Component/s: Kernel

Description

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

net: qrtr: fix OOB Read in qrtr_endpoint_post

Syzbot reported slab-out-of-bounds Read in
qrtr_endpoint_post. The problem was in wrong
_size_ type:

	if (len != ALIGN(size, 4) + hdrlen)
		goto err;

If size from qrtr_hdr is 4294967293 (0xfffffffd), the result of
ALIGN(size, 4) will be 0. In case of len == hdrlen and size == 4294967293
in header this check won't fail and

	skb_put_data(skb, data + hdrlen, size);

will read out of bound from data, which is hdrlen allocated block.
