CVE-2026-90086 in Linux
要約
〜によって MITRE • 2026年09月17日
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xsk: honor XDP_TX_METADATA in zero-copy path
The zero-copy path reads TX metadata whenever the UMEM has metadata space, even if the descriptor does not set XDP_TX_METADATA. Pass descriptor options through the metadata helpers and ignore metadata unless the option is set.
This does not fix the existing per-WQE metadata handling for mlx5 MPWQEs. Only the descriptor that starts a session passes through xsk_tx_metadata_request() and configures offload state shared by the batch. Metadata on descriptors joining an open session is therefore not validated and does not configure its requested offloads. In addition, a non-NULL metadata pointer from such a descriptor is treated as a timestamp completion request even when XDP_TXMD_FLAGS_TIMESTAMP is not set, so its metadata union can be overwritten with an unrequested timestamp. Fixing mixed metadata states within one MPWQE requires a separate change.
