{"cve":"CVE-2026-46133","nvd":{"published":"2026-05-28T10:16:28.863","modified":"2026-10-19T20:18:33.883","status":"Undergoing Analysis","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nRDMA/rxe: Reject unknown opcodes before ICRC processing\n\nEven after applying commit 7244491dab34 (\"RDMA/rxe: Validate pad and ICRC\nbefore payload_size() in rxe_rcv\"), a single unauthenticated UDP packet\ncan still trigger panic.  That patch handled payload_size() underflow only\nfor valid opcodes with short packets, not for packets carrying an unknown\nopcode.  The unknown-opcode OOB read described below predates that commit\nand reaches back to the initial Soft RoCE driver.\n\nThe check added there reads\n\n    pkt->paylen < header_size(pkt) + bth_pad(pkt) + RXE_ICRC_SIZE\n\nwhere header_size(pkt) expands to rxe_opcode[pkt->opcode].length.  The\nrxe_opcode[] array has 256 entries but is only populated for defined IB\nopcodes; any other entry (for example opcode 0xff) is zero-initialized, so\nlength == 0 and the check degenerates to\n\n    pkt->paylen < 0 + bth_pad(pkt) + RXE_ICRC_SIZE\n\nwhich does not constrain pkt->paylen enough.  rxe_icrc_hdr() then computes\n\n    rxe_opcode[pkt->opcode].length - RXE_BTH_BYTES\n\nwhich underflows when length == 0 and passes a huge value to rxe_crc32(),\ncausing an out-of-bounds read of the skb payload.\n\nReproduced on v7.0-rc7 with that fix applied, QEMU/KVM with\nCONFIG_RDMA_RXE=y and CONFIG_KASAN=y, after\n\n    rdma link add rxe0 type rxe netdev eth0\n\nA single 48-byte UDP packet to port 4791 with BTH opcode=0xff and\nQPN=IB_MULTICAST_QPN triggers:\n\n    BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in crc32_le+0x115/0x170\n    Read of size 1 at addr ...\n    The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of\n     allocated 704-byte region\n    Call Trace:\n     crc32_le+0x115/0x170\n     rxe_icrc_hdr.isra.0+0x226/0x300\n     rxe_icrc_check+0x13f/0x3a0\n     rxe_rcv+0x6e1/0x16e0\n     rxe_udp_encap_recv+0x20a/0x320\n     udp_queue_rcv_one_skb+0x7ed/0x12c0\n\nSubsequent packets with the same shape fault on unmapped memory and panic\nthe kernel.  The trigger requires only module load and \"rdma link add\"; no\nQP, no connection, and no authentication.\n\nFix this by rejecting packets whose opcode has no rxe_opcode[] entry,\ndetected via the zero mask or zero length, before any length arithmetic\nruns.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":7.5},"cwes":["CWE-125"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/006a3a5f75345c6a0dbf13fd3ee01406e93b6733","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/318787fa7193bd79691f2ebce4e80cb6abd0faef","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4c6f86d85d03cdb33addce86aa69aa795ca6c47a","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/599cfdf44c1701c581cd4a21f1e1e03f8dc3840b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6a79b1ea0fcb2c998fda6a793050f66146e9cc42"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:43:09.190223697+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-46133","score":0.00574,"percentile":0.47133,"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).
