CVE-2026-74382 Detail
Received
This CVE record has recently been published to the CVE List and has been included within the NVD dataset. DescriptionIn the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: cls_bpf: prevent unbounded recursion in offload rollback Quan Sun reported [1] a stack overflow in cls_bpf_offload_cmd(). Reproducer on netdevsim: add a skip_sw cls_bpf filter, set the bpf_tc_accept debugfs knob to 0, then `tc filter replace`. The replace calls tc_setup_cb_replace() which fails. cls_bpf_offload_cmd() then swaps prog/oldprog and recursively calls itself to roll back. But bpf_tc_accept=0 makes the rollback fail too, which triggers yet another rollback frame with the same arguments, and so on until the stack is exhausted. bpf_tc_accept is just a convenient knob for the reproducer. Any driver whose tc_setup_cb_replace() fails twice in a row can hit the same loop, so this is not a netdevsim-only issue. Two ways to fix it: 1) Have the rollback call tc_setup_cb_add() on oldprog instead of re-entering cls_bpf_offload_cmd(). 2) Mark the rollback frame with a flag and skip a second-level rollback from inside it. Go with (2). It is the smaller change and keeps the original behaviour: the rollback still goes through tc_setup_cb_replace(), so the driver gets one real chance to restore its state. If that attempt also fails, we just return the original error instead of recursing. [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/T/#u Metrics
