CVE-2026-93077 PUBLISHED

cxl/features: Clamp Get Feature output size to the remaining buffer

Assigner: Linux
Reserved: 17.09.2026 Published: 17.09.2026 Updated: 17.09.2026

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

cxl/features: Clamp Get Feature output size to the remaining buffer

cxl_get_feature() reads a feature in a loop but passes a fixed size_out as the output capacity every iteration. On the last partial iteration the buffer has less room left, so a device that returns more than asked can overflow feat_out.

Use the per-iter size data_to_rd_size, which already tracks the remaining room, as the output capacity.
