Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to trigger a kernel warning.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of banner payload length in the Ceph messenger v2 banner parser when parsing a crafted protocol banner. A remote attacker can send a banner with a zero-length payload to trigger a kernel warning.

The protocol requires banner payloads to contain at least two 64-bit feature fields.
