CVE-2022-48743

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to a bug in the Linux kernel's amd-xgbe component, which can cause a kernel panic due to inconsistencies in hardware descriptors. When the skb length underflow is detected, it triggers a BUG ON() in include/linux/skbuff.h, leading to intermittent kernel panic. The fix involves dropping the packet if such length underflows are seen. This issue may allow an attacker to impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
