  "details" : [ "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\nrxrpc: proc: size address buffers for %pISpc output\nThe AF_RXRPC procfs helpers format local and remote socket addresses into\nfixed 50-byte stack buffers with \"%pISpc\".\nThat is too small for the longest current-tree IPv6-with-port form the\nformatter can produce. In lib/vsprintf.c, the compressed IPv6 path uses a\ndotted-quad tail not only for v4mapped addresses, but also for ISATAP\naddresses via ipv6_addr_is_isatap().\nAs a result, a case such as\n[ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:0:5efe:255.255.255.255]:65535\nis possible with the current formatter. That is 50 visible characters, so\n51 bytes including the trailing NUL, which does not fit in the existing\nchar[50] buffers used by net/rxrpc/proc.c.\nSize the buffers from the formatter's maximum textual form and switch the\ncall sites to scnprintf().\nChanges since v1:\n- correct the changelog to cite the actual maximum current-tree case\nexplicitly\n- frame the proof around the ISATAP formatting path instead of the earlier\nmapped-v4 example", "A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, specifically within the rxrpc component. The AF_RXRPC procfs helpers use fixed-size buffers to format local and remote socket addresses. When processing certain IPv6 addresses with ports, the formatted string can exceed the buffer's capacity, leading to a buffer overflow. This memory corruption vulnerability can cause system instability or a denial of service (DoS)." ],
