GHSA-HG34-75QR-C9G6
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-19 09:34 – Updated: 2026-05-12 12:31In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: Fix infinite recursion in fib6_dump_done().
syzkaller reported infinite recursive calls of fib6_dump_done() during netlink socket destruction. [1]
From the log, syzkaller sent an AF_UNSPEC RTM_GETROUTE message, and then the response was generated. The following recvmmsg() resumed the dump for IPv6, but the first call of inet6_dump_fib() failed at kzalloc() due to the fault injection. [0]
12:01:34 executing program 3: r0 = socket$nl_route(0x10, 0x3, 0x0) sendmsg$nl_route(r0, ... snip ...) recvmmsg(r0, ... snip ...) (fail_nth: 8)
Here, fib6_dump_done() was set to nlk_sk(sk)->cb.done, and the next call of inet6_dump_fib() set it to nlk_sk(sk)->cb.args[3]. syzkaller stopped receiving the response halfway through, and finally netlink_sock_destruct() called nlk_sk(sk)->cb.done().
fib6_dump_done() calls fib6_dump_end() and nlk_sk(sk)->cb.done() if it is still not NULL. fib6_dump_end() rewrites nlk_sk(sk)->cb.done() by nlk_sk(sk)->cb.args[3], but it has the same function, not NULL, calling itself recursively and hitting the stack guard page.
To avoid the issue, let's set the destructor after kzalloc().

GHSA-HPWF-8G29-85QM
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-14 00:15 – Updated: 2026-04-27 16:16Impact
Attacker sends many small, valid JSON messages in one TCP frame → handleData() recurses once per message; buffer shrinks each call → maxBufferSize is never reached; call stack overflows instead → A ~47 KB payload is sufficient to trigger RangeError
Patches

Mitigation
Ensure that an end condition will be reached under all logic conditions. The end condition may include checking against the depth of recursion and exiting with an error if the recursion goes too deep. The complexity of the end condition contributes to the effectiveness of this action.
Mitigation
Increase the stack size.
CAPEC-230: Serialized Data with Nested Payloads
Applications often need to transform data in and out of a data format (e.g., XML and YAML) by using a parser. It may be possible for an adversary to inject data that may have an adverse effect on the parser when it is being processed. Many data format languages allow the definition of macro-like structures that can be used to simplify the creation of complex structures. By nesting these structures, causing the data to be repeatedly substituted, an adversary can cause the parser to consume more resources while processing, causing excessive memory consumption and CPU utilization.
CAPEC-231: Oversized Serialized Data Payloads
An adversary injects oversized serialized data payloads into a parser during data processing to produce adverse effects upon the parser such as exhausting system resources and arbitrary code execution.
