Hence, when deciding the next geneve_opt position, the\npointer addition should be in units of char *.\n\nHowever, the current implementation erroneously does type conversion\nbefore the addition, which will lead to heap out-of-bounds write.\n\n[    6.989857] ==================================================================\n[    6.990293] BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in nft_tunnel_obj_init+0x977/0xa70\n[    6.990725] Write of size 124 at addr ffff888005f18974 by task poc/178\n[    6.991162]\n[    6.991259] CPU: 0 PID: 178 Comm: poc-oob-write Not tainted 6.1.132 #1\n[    6.991655] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.16.0-0-gd239552ce722-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014\n[    6.992281] Call Trace:\n[    6.992423]  <TASK>\n[    6.992586]  dump_stack_lvl+0x44/0x5c\n[    6.992801]  print_report+0x184/0x4be\n[    6.993790]  kasan_report+0xc5/0x100\n[    6.994252]  kasan_check_range+0xf3/0x1a0\n[    6.994486]  memcpy+0x38/0x60\n[    6.994692]  nft_tunnel_obj_init+0x977/0xa70\n[    6.995677]  nft_obj_init+0x10c/0x1b0\n[    6.995891]  nf_tables_newobj+0x585/0x950\n[    6.996922]  nfnetlink_rcv_batch+0xdf9/0x1020\n[    6.998997]  nfnetlink_rcv+0x1df/0x220\n[    6.999537]  netlink_unicast+0x395/0x530\n[    7.000771]  netlink_sendmsg+0x3d0/0x6d0\n[    7.001462]  __sock_sendmsg+0x99/0xa0\n[    7.001707]  ____sys_sendmsg+0x409/0x450\n[    7.002391]  ___sys_sendmsg+0xfd/0x170\n[    7.003145]  __sys_sendmsg+0xea/0x170\n[    7.004359]  do_syscall_64+0x5e/0x90\n[    7.005817]  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x6e/0xd8\n[    7.006127] RIP: 0033:0x7ec756d4e407\n[    7.006339] Code: 48 89 fa 4c 89 df e8 38 aa 00 00 8b 93 08 03 00 00 59 5e 48 83 f8 fc 74 1a 5b c3 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 48 8b 44 24 10 0f 05 <5b> c3 0f 1f 80 00 00 00 00 83 e2 39 83 faf\n[    7.007364] RSP: 002b:00007ffed5d46760 EFLAGS: 00000202 ORIG_RAX: 000000000000002e\n[    7.007827] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007ec756cc4740 RCX: 00007ec756d4e407\n[    7.008223] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 00007ffed5d467f0 RDI: 0000000000000003\n[    7.008620] RBP: 00007ffed5d468a0 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000\n[    7.009039] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000202 R12: 0000000000000000\n[    7.009429] R13: 00007ffed5d478b0 R14: 00007ec756ee5000 R15: 00005cbd4e655cb8\n\nFix this bug with correct pointer addition and conversion in parse\nand dump code.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-787"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0a93a710d6df334b828ea064c6d39fda34f901dc","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1b755d8eb1ace3870789d48fbd94f386ad6e30be","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/28d88ee1e1cc8ac2d79aeb112717b97c5c833d43","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/31d49eb436f2da61280508d7adf8c9b473b967aa","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/446d94898c560ed2f61e26ae445858a4c4830762"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:01:11.054312287+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-22056","score":0.0032,"percentile":0.24787,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
