Surrounding code uses\nsizeof(*hdr) consistently:\n\n\tif (done >= count || sizeof(*hdr) > count - done) {\n\t...\n\tif (copy_to_user(buf + done, hdr, sizeof(*hdr))) {\n\t...\n\tdone += sizeof(*hdr);\n\nstruct iommufd_vevent_header is currently 8 bytes (two __u32 fields,\nflags and sequence), so on 64-bit (sizeof(void *) == 8) the two\nexpressions happen to be equal and the check works as intended.\n\nOn 32-bit (sizeof(void *) == 4) the check under-counts the header by\n4 bytes: a vEVENT whose data_len causes 8 + cur->data_len to exceed\ncount - done while 4 + cur->data_len does not will pass the check,\nthen the loop will copy_to_user 8 bytes of header followed by data_len\nbytes of payload, writing past the user-supplied buffer.\n\nIt is also a latent bug for any future expansion of struct\niommufd_vevent_header beyond sizeof(void *) on 64-bit; the check\nshould not depend on the type happening to match the host pointer\nwidth.\n\nUse sizeof(*hdr) to match the rest of the function and the actual\namount that will be copied.","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/04a177f91160ee18da98f5689482cf0f589ec869","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0cdbb97a4dbd69abdd2ab998b4fbc7803d4b0b72","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/be93d186ae88a92e7aa77e122d4e661fa57b1e39"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:43:09.190223697+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64293","score":0.00173,"percentile":0.0672,"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).
