# CVE-2026-64102

> 9.8 CRITICAL

## Beschreibung

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

RDMA/siw: Reject MPA FPDU length underflow before signed receive math

A malicious connected siw peer can send an iWARP FPDU whose MPA length
field (c_hdr->mpa_len, 16 bit big-endian, peer-controlled) is smaller
than the fixed DDP/RDMAP header for the announced opcode. Soft-iWARP
parses the full header in siw_get_hdr() based on iwarp_pktinfo[opcode]
.hdr_len, but never compares mpa_len against that header length.

siw_tcp_rx_data() then derives

    srx->fpdu_part_rem = be16_to_cpu(mpa_len) - fpdu_part_rcvd
                         + MPA_HDR_SIZE;

where fpdu_part_rcvd equals iwarp_pktinfo[opcode].hdr_len at this
point. For a tagged WRITE (hdr_len 16, MPA_HDR_SIZE 2) the smallest
on-wire mpa_len of 0 yields fpdu_part_rem = -14, and any mpa_len below
hdr_len - MPA_HDR_SIZE underflows to a negative int.

The signed value then flows into siw_proc_write()/siw_proc_rresp() as

    bytes = min(srx->fpdu_part_rem, srx->skb_new);

is handed to siw_check_mem() as an int len (whose interval check
addr + len > mem->va + mem->len is satisfied for a valid base when
len is negative), and reaches siw_rx_data() -> siw_rx_kva() /
siw_rx_umem() -> skb_copy_bits() as a signed copy length. The header
copy branch in skb_copy_bits() promotes that to size_t, producing a
multi-gigabyte read.

KASAN under a KUnit harness that drives the real kernel TCP receive
path -- a loopback AF_INET socketpair, the malformed FPDU written via
kernel_sendmsg, sk_data_ready firing in softirq, tcp_read_sock
dispatching to siw_tcp_rx_data -- reports:

    BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in skb_copy_bits+0x284/0x480
    Read of size 4294967295 at addr ffff888...
    Call Trace:
     skb_copy_bits
     siw_rx_kva
     siw_rx_data
     siw_check_mem
     siw_proc_write
     siw_tcp_rx_data
     __tcp_read_sock
     siw_qp_llp_data_ready
     tcp_data_ready
     tcp_data_queue

Add the missing invariant at the earliest point where the peer header
is fully assembled. iwarp_pktinfo[*].hdr_len - MPA_HDR_SIZE is exactly
the value the siw transmitter uses as the minimum mpa_len for each
opcode (drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_qp.c:33), so this matches the
protocol contract. Out-of-range FPDUs terminate the connection with
TERM_ERROR_LAYER_LLP / LLP_ETYPE_MPA / LLP_ECODE_FPDU_START -- which
is RFC 5044 Section 8 error code 3 ("Marker and ULPDU Length fields
do not agree on the start of an FPDU"), the correct framing-error
class for this inconsistency.
