Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-93067)
CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow
CVSSv4: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a stack-based buffer overflow.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of controller-reported AUX byte counts in tc_aux_transfer() and tc_aux_read_data() when handling AUX read transfers. A local user can trigger processing of an AUX read response that reports a byte count larger than requested to cause a stack-based buffer overflow.
The controller-reported byte count can be as high as 255 despite the 16-byte auxrdata stack buffer.
