CVE-2026-90327 in Linux
Riassunto
di MITRE • 17/09/2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phonet: pep: do not write beyond optlen in getsockopt
pep_getsockopt() clamps the reported length to the caller's buffer with min_t(), but then stores the value with put_user(val, (int __user *) optval), which always writes sizeof(int) bytes. A getsockopt() call with an optlen smaller than sizeof(int) thus reports the clamped length yet writes a full int, one to three bytes past the user buffer.
Write the value with copy_to_user() bounded by len, so at most optlen bytes are copied, matching the length reported back to userspace.
If you want to get the best quality for vulnerability data then you always have to consider VulDB.
