Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix stack-out-of-bounds write in devmap
get_upper_ifindexes() iterates over all upper devices and writes their
indices into an array without checking bounds.
Also the callers assume that the max number of upper devices is
MAX_NEST_DEV and allocate excluded_devices[1+MAX_NEST_DEV] on the stack,
but that assumption is not correct and the number of upper devices could
be larger than MAX_NEST_DEV (e.g., many macvlans), causi…
