What is the problem

A vulnerability (unclassified) exists in Linux kernel.

Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Linux kernel.

Severity

Severity: ?. Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.

How to fix

Update to the patched release per vendor advisory.

Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Audit SBOM/dependencies to find affected services.

Original description The description as published by the source.

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

scsi: fcoe: Reject FIP descriptors with zero fip_dlen in CVL walker

drivers/scsi/fcoe/fcoe_ctlr.c::fcoe_ctlr_recv_clr_vlink() advanced the
descriptor cursor by an attacker-supplied fip_dlen without ever
requiring dlen >= sizeof(struct fip_desc) in the default branch. The
named descriptor cases (FIP_DT_MAC, FIP_DT_NAME, FIP_DT_VN_ID) checked
their per-type minimum lengths, but a FIP_DT_NON_CRITICAL descriptor
(fip_dtype >= 128, which the standard requires receivers to silently
ignore) skipped that check entirely.

An unauthenticated L2 peer on the FCoE control VLAN could hang
fcoe_ctlr_recv_work on an fcoe, qedf, or bnx2fc initiator indefinitely
by emitting one FIP CVL frame whose single descriptor had fip_dtype ==
FIP_DT_NON_CRITICAL and fip_dlen == 0: the cursor advanced zero bytes
per iteration and the loop condition rlen >= sizeof(*desc) stayed true
forever, blocking every subsequent FIP frame on that controller.

Tighten the outer dlen guard to also reject dlen < sizeof(struct
fip_desc), so a malformed descriptor whose length cannot even cover the
descriptor header is rejected before the switch. This is the same
lower-bound the named cases already apply and is the minimum scope that
closes the loop.
