Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
The xfrm_migrate() function in the net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c file in the Linux kernel built with CONFIG_XFRM_MIGRATE does not verify if the dir parameter is less than XFRM_POLICY_MAX. This allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds access) or possibly have unspecified other impact by sending a XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE netlink message. This flaw is present in the Linux kernel since an introduction of XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE in 2.6.21-rc1, up to 4.13-rc3.

Description Andrej Nemec 2017-07-25 12:05:25 EDT 
xfrm_migrate() function in net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c file in the Linux kernel build with CONFIG_XFRM_MIGRATE does not check that the dir parameter is less than XFRM_POLICY_MAX. This allows a local attacker cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds access) or possibly have unspecified other impact by sending a XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE netlink message. This flaw is present in the Linux kernel since an introduction of XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE in 2.6.21-rc1 and upto 4.13-rc3.

Statement:

This issue does not affect the versions of the Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 as the code with the flaw is not present in the products listed or is not exploitable.

This issue affects the versions of the Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and Red Hat Enterprise MRG 2. Future kernel updates for these products may address this issue.
