The attack requires loading a tc/XDP program and an freplace extension program through the local bpf() syscall; a remote peer cannot supply BPF bytecode. Although the corrupting store fires when a packet traverses the tc/XDP hook, the vulnerable path is entered locally.\nAC:L - Exploitation is fully deterministic — load a global subprog that does not touch packet data, replace it via freplace with one calling bpf_skb_pull_data(), and the caller's stale packet pointer is used unconditionally on the next packet. No race and no uncontrolled memory-layout condition is involved.\nPR:L - BPF_PROG_TYPE_EXT is a net-admin prog type requiring CAP_BPF+CAP_NET_ADMIN, but these are routinely delegated into user namespaces via BPF tokens (BPF_F_TOKEN_FD) and are held by ordinary eBPF-based container networking workloads, so the attacker need not be root on the host.\nUI:N - The attacker loads and attaches both programs and can generate the triggering packet themselves (e.g. over loopback). No victim action is required.\nS:U - The corrupted memory is kernel heap belonging to the same kernel security authority; this is a standard local privilege escalation, not a VM/IOMMU boundary crossing.\nC:H - The stale packet pointer reads freed/reallocated slab memory beyond the packet, and the BPF program can copy that data into a map readable from userspace, giving an arbitrary kernel-heap disclosure primitive.\nI:H - Direct packet stores through the stale pointer become use-after-free (or out-of-bounds, with skb_change_tail/xdp_adjust_tail) writes at an attacker-chosen offset with an attacker-chosen value — an arbitrary kernel write suitable for control-flow hijacking and privilege escalation.\nA:H - Writing into a freed skb head corrupts slab metadata and neighbouring objects, reliably producing kernel oops/panic even when full exploitation is not achieved."}]}],"providerMetadata":{"shortName":"Linux","orgId":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","dateUpdated":"2026-08-05T11:47:45.942Z"},"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.6","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.90"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.6","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.25"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.6","versionEndExcluding":"6.13"}]}]}],"x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}},"adp":[{"title":"CISA ADP Vulnrichment","metrics":[{"other":{"type":"ssvc","content":{"id":"CVE-2024-58100","role":"CISA Coordinator","options":[{"Exploitation":"none"},{"Automatable":"no"},{"Technical Impact":"total"}],"version":"2.0.3","timestamp":"2026-10-15T21:42:20.766828Z"}}}],"providerMetadata":{"shortName":"CISA-ADP","orgId":"134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0","dateUpdated":"2026-10-15T21:51:51.123Z"}}]}}}
