ZDI-24-297: Linux Kernel nft_exthdr_sctp_eval Stack-based Buffer Overflow Information Disclosure Vulnerability

This vulnerability allows local attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of the Linux Kernel. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The ZDI has assigned a CVSS rating of 7.3. The following CVEs are assigned: CVE-2023-52628.

The specific flaw exists within the nft_exthdr_ipv6_eval function. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length stack-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the kernel.
