forwarded out a VXLAN/Geneve device enslaved to a bridge or OVS port, a standard cloud/container overlay topology. The L3 source address is unconstrained (only unspecified/multicast/loopback sources are filtered), so an off-link remote sender whose packet is routed to a workload behind the overlay reaches the vulnerable code.\nAC:L - The attacker only needs to send an IPv6 packet larger than the tunnel's inner MTU; non-linear skbs are the normal case for large frames under GRO, header-split NICs, and virtio-net mergeable buffers, and the reporter reproduced it with plain netperf traffic. No memory-layout luck or attacker-uncontrollable state is required.\nPR:N - There is no capability check, authentication, or credential gate anywhere on the receive-and-bridge-to-tunnel path \u2014 the packet is simply forwarded and the ICMPv6 error is built. The attacker needs no account or privileges on the affected host.\nUI:N - Exploitation is entirely packet-driven and happens inside softirq/xmit context with no victim participation. No administrator or user action is needed once the standard bridged-tunnel configuration is in place.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds read and its consequences are confined to the host kernel that contains the defective checksum call. The vulnerable and impacted components are the same security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - csum_partial() reads a fixed 1240 bytes from a linear buffer that may hold only tens of bytes, overreading up to roughly a kilobyte of adjacent kernel slab memory \u2014 far beyond a \"few bytes.\" Worse, the folded result is placed in the ICMPv6 checksum field and transmitted back to the attacker, yielding a repeatable oracle over kernel heap contents that heap grooming can turn into a real disclosure.\nI:N - The defect is a read-only overrun; no kernel memory is written, no bounds are exceeded on a store, and there is no type confusion or control-flow influence. The only consequence for state is an incorrect checksum on an outgoing packet, which the receiver discards.\nA:H - Reading up to ~1KB past the end of a slab allocation can walk off the backing pages into unmapped memory, faulting in softirq context and oopsing the kernel. On KASAN or panic_on_oops/hardened kernels the access panics the machine outright, and the attacker can repeat it at will with a stream of oversized packets." } } }
