CVE-2022-43945 HIGH

Published: 2022-11-04 | Last Modified: 2026-05-12 | Status: Modified

Description

The Linux kernel NFSD implementation prior to versions 5.19.17 and 6.0.2 are vulnerable to buffer overflow. NFSD tracks the number of pages held by each NFSD thread by combining the receive and send buffers of a remote procedure call (RPC) into a single array of pages. A client can force the send buffer to shrink by sending an RPC message over TCP with garbage data added at the end of the message. The RPC message with garbage data is still correctly formed according to the specification and is passed forward to handlers. Vulnerable code in NFSD is not expecting the oversized request and writes beyond the allocated buffer space. CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

Additional Descriptions (1)

La implementación NFSD del kernel de Linux anterior a las versiones 5.19.17 y 6.0.2 es vulnerable al desbordamiento del búfer. NFSD rastrea el número de páginas retenidas por cada subproceso NFSD combinando los búferes de recepción y envío de una llamada a procedimiento remoto (RPC) en una única matriz de páginas. Un cliente puede forzar la reducción del búfer de envío enviando un mensaje RPC a través de TCP con datos basura agregados al final del mensaje. El mensaje RPC con datos basura todavía está formado correctamente según la especificación y se pasa a los controladores. El código vulnerable en NFSD no espera la solicitud de gran tamaño y escribe más allá del espacio de búfer asignado. CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
