{"cve":"CVE-2026-74382","nvd":{"published":"2026-08-15T06:22:40.040","modified":"2026-08-17T06:19:33.073","status":"Received","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/sched: cls_bpf: prevent unbounded recursion in offload rollback\n\nQuan Sun reported [1] a stack overflow in cls_bpf_offload_cmd().\n\nReproducer on netdevsim: add a skip_sw cls_bpf filter, set the\nbpf_tc_accept debugfs knob to 0, then `tc filter replace`. The replace\ncalls tc_setup_cb_replace() which fails. cls_bpf_offload_cmd() then\nswaps prog/oldprog and recursively calls itself to roll back. But\nbpf_tc_accept=0 makes the rollback fail too, which triggers yet another\nrollback frame with the same arguments, and so on until the stack is\nexhausted.\n\nbpf_tc_accept is just a convenient knob for the reproducer. Any driver\nwhose tc_setup_cb_replace() fails twice in a row can hit the same loop,\nso this is not a netdevsim-only issue.\n\nTwo ways to fix it:\n\n  1) Have the rollback call tc_setup_cb_add() on oldprog instead of\n     re-entering cls_bpf_offload_cmd().\n  2) Mark the rollback frame with a flag and skip a second-level\n     rollback from inside it.\n\nGo with (2). It is the smaller change and keeps the original behaviour:\nthe rollback still goes through tc_setup_cb_replace(), so the driver\ngets one real chance to restore its state. If that attempt also fails,\nwe just return the original error instead of recursing.\n\n[1]: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/ce5a6005-3c5e-4696-9e05-eba9461dc860@std.uestc.edu.cn/T/#u","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/10753da2d659dd425a6e620f47f86852d604f67f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1387f252a242a51bfbb6eace29c8f8db21b457da","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/27db54b90bcc7c37867fe664107fa25ea6a116e4","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/33373e1f378a501bc51aa73312f74295c84e3101","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3fa6fb5d771c992ebedbfa7331c6bcc6f33f89b7"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:49:10.689564601+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-74382","score":0.00195,"percentile":0.09235,"date":"2026-11-01"},"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).
