  "summary": "bpf: Fix array bounds error with may_goto",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbpf: Fix array bounds error with may_goto\n\nmay_goto uses an additional 8 bytes on the stack, which causes the\ninterpreters[] array to go out of bounds when calculating index by\nstack_size.\n\n1. If a BPF program is rewritten, re-evaluate the stack size. For non-JIT\ncases, reject loading directly.\n\n2. For non-JIT cases, calculating interpreters[idx] may still cause\nout-of-bounds array access, and just warn about it.\n\n3. For jit_requested cases, the execution of bpf_func also needs to be\nwarned. So move the definition of function __bpf_prog_ret0_warn out of\nthe macro definition CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON.",

      "scenario": "AV:L - The vulnerability is reached through the `bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD)` syscall and triggered by running the loaded program (e.g. via `SO_ATTACH_BPF` on a local socket). No network-facing service parses attacker data to reach this code.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls both inputs to the faulty index computation \u2014 a program that uses exactly 512 bytes of stack plus a single `may_goto` instruction deterministically yields `interpreters[16]` on every attempt. No race, timing, or uncontrolled memory-layout condition is involved.\nPR:L - Loading a BPF program requires only an unprivileged local account on systems where `kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled=0` (socket-filter/cgroup_skb types load without CAP_BPF), and `may_goto` has no additional capability gate in the verifier. No root or administrative privilege is needed.\nUI:N - The attacker loads and triggers the BPF program entirely on their own; no victim action, mount, or file open is required.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds access and the resulting corrupted control flow are confined to the kernel's own security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - An out-of-bounds read past `interpreters[]` yields a function pointer that is then invoked, causing the BPF interpreter to execute uncontrolled memory as bytecode with unbounded `BPF_LDX` loads, which can be leveraged to disclose arbitrary kernel memory.\nI:H - The wrongly-typed indirect call runs `___bpf_prog_run()` over an uninitialized instruction pointer, so `BPF_STX`/`BPF_ST` stores and `BPF_CALL` dispatches operate on unvalidated addresses \u2014 a memory-corruption and control-flow-hijack primitive.\nA:H - In the common case the bogus interpreter entry hits `BUG_ON(1)` on an unknown opcode or faults on a wild pointer, producing a kernel oops/panic that any local user can trigger on demand."
