Kernel CNA guidance classifies BPF as a local attack vector.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls the BPF bytecode, including bpf2bpf subprograms that force the extra JIT pass where the stale prior-pass stride is used. Wrong jmp_offset encodings are deterministic for a given program (the in-tree tailcall_bpf2bpf_1 case), with no race or layout outside attacker control.\nPR:L - BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY is an unprivileged map type, bpf_tail_call_proto is returned before the CAP_BPF gate, and SOCKET_FILTER programs load without CAP_BPF where unprivileged BPF is enabled. Otherwise only CAP_BPF or a delegated BPF token in a user namespace is required, not init-namespace root.\nUI:N - The attacker loads the crafted program, attaches it to a socket they own or runs it with BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN, and triggers the miscompiled tail call themselves. No separate victim action is required.\nS:U - The wrong branches execute inside the host kernel's own JIT image and corrupt in-kernel control flow. That is standard kernel privilege-escalation impact, not a VM, IOMMU, or hypervisor boundary crossing.\nC:H - Miscomputed tail-call \"goto out\" branches can land inside the remaining sequence after the max_entries check, so an out-of-range index performs an OOB load of array->ptrs[] and treats the result as a function pointer, disclosing kernel memory. Mid-image jumps likewise execute attacker-shaped JIT loads at kernel privilege.\nI:H - The same OOB ptrs[] load is followed by an indirect jump through prog->bpf_func, hijacking kernel control flow. Branches that skip the NULL or tail-call-count checks, or that land mid-instruction, likewise yield a kernel-mode write and control-flow primitive.\nA:H - The fix and the prior incomplete tail-call offset patch document watchdog soft lockups from wrong, including backward, branches looping in kernel context. Any such hang, oops, or panic is Availability High."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["arch/loongarch/net/bpf_jit.c"], "versions": [{"version": "17c010fe45def335fe03a0718935416b04c7f349", "lessThan": "50fbc294e4e96246d60cd66f98acf043a362e3a0", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "f83d469e16bb1f75991ca67c56786fb2aaa42bea", "lessThan": "89819868cde78cb2f748533785a46a3430873f20", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd39d9e6b7e4c58fa77783e7aedf7ada51d02ea3", "lessThan": "882b8912b7e92341fdb115ba0e2e5142a28684ff", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd39d9e6b7e4c58fa77783e7aedf7ada51d02ea3", "lessThan": "96f44d493c280ea161569c43d7ed0f3b0815803a", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "cd39d9e6b7e4c58fa77783e7aedf7ada51d02ea3", "lessThan": "37d545d12f21c4d50612ecaebd7ae1e5bf91b2d8", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "1a782fa32e644aa9fbae6c8488f3e61221ac96e1", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "f2b5e50cc04d7a049b385bc1c93b9cbf5f10c94f", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "9262e3e04621558e875eb5afb5e726b648cd5949", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "6.6.103", "lessThan": "6.6.160", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.43", "lessThan": "6.12.114", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.1.149", "lessThan": "6.2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.15.11", "lessThan": "6.16", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.16.2", "lessThan": "6.17", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["arch/loongarch/net/bpf_jit.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6.17", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.17", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.6.160", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.114", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.51", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.5", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.6.103", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.160"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.12.43", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.114"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.17", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.51"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.17", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.5"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.17", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.1.149"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.15.11"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.16.2"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/50fbc294e4e96246d60cd66f98acf043a362e3a0"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/89819868cde78cb2f748533785a46a3430873f20"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/882b8912b7e92341fdb115ba0e2e5142a28684ff"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/96f44d493c280ea161569c43d7ed0f3b0815803a"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/37d545d12f21c4d50612ecaebd7ae1e5bf91b2d8"}], "title": "LoongArch: BPF: Refactor jump offset calculation in tail call", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
