ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL requires no CAP_NET_ADMIN and the\nioctl sizes the buffer from the rule_cnt userspace passes in, so once an\nadmin has installed flow steering rules any user can ask for fewer slots\nthan there are rules and run off the end of the allocation.  A rule_cnt\nof 0 leaves the buffer pointer NULL and the walk dereferences it.\n\nBail out with -EMSGSIZE when the buffer fills up, the way the other\nntuple capable drivers do, and report how many locations were filled so\na shrinking rule list does not leave the caller reading stale slots.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.0},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/82812583b9c69c241da6da4186f14e9df2516488","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a7e023c63e855761c1426cee8d17c2bca32aa339","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ecebfdaab72a504c10f4907bd00fc3b705ec3b12","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f1986bf87b0709c95126fe196cf39e5b8c8453a1"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:56:02.509636177+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-98029","score":0.00121,"percentile":0.01915,"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).
