major network consumers call setauthsize and are not affected, and the driver only exists on Tegra234 platforms with TEGRA_HOST1X.\nAC:L - On affected Tegra systems with tegra-se loaded, an attacker reliably triggers the bug by issuing a GCM decrypt through AF_ALG without calling ALG_SET_AEAD_AUTHSIZE, relying on the default 16-byte tag while ctx->authsize remains zero.\nPR:L - Triggering tegra GCM decrypt via AF_ALG requires only an unprivileged local user able to open AF_ALG sockets and bind to gcm(aes); no CAP_SYS_ADMIN, real root, or container-escaping capabilities are needed on standard configurations.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires no victim interaction such as mounting filesystems or opening files; the attacker directly submits crafted decrypt requests through the local crypto interface.\nS:U - Impact is kernel heap/memory corruption and potential privilege escalation within the same kernel security domain; it does not cross VM, container, or IOMMU boundaries.\nC:H - The out-of-bounds write corrupts memory adjacent to the destination scatterlist buffer; such heap corruption can expose kernel pointers or other sensitive data and is rated High per memory-corruption guidance.\nI:H - Decrypt uses an inflated cryptlen so scatterwalk_map_and_copy writes up to 16 bytes beyond the caller-allocated dst_sg buffer with no bounds checking, constituting an exploitable out-of-bounds write primitive.\nA:H - Writing past the destination scatterlist can corrupt adjacent kernel structures and cause kernel oops or panic; the fix commit explicitly describes this as a crash-causing out-of-bounds write condition." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/crypto/tegra/tegra-se-aes.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "0880bb3b00c855fc244b7177ffdaafef4d0aa1e0", "lessThan": "cd6991001bf0681ed0bcf21f9cc3d261d749b2bb", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0880bb3b00c855fc244b7177ffdaafef4d0aa1e0", "lessThan": "99a18e1d979e0fad3aaf9c65ae6696897c1d9869", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0880bb3b00c855fc244b7177ffdaafef4d0aa1e0", "lessThan": "c6237834d9994de209cb90c7a2c461247bce8e90", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0880bb3b00c855fc244b7177ffdaafef4d0aa1e0", "lessThan": "360f2974fcea49c61f6d6f81554741a9eeee7168", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/crypto/tegra/tegra-se-aes.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.10", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.10", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.105", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.46", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1.10", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.10", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.105" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.10", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.46" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.10", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1.10" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.10", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cd6991001bf0681ed0bcf21f9cc3d261d749b2bb" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/99a18e1d979e0fad3aaf9c65ae6696897c1d9869" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c6237834d9994de209cb90c7a2c461247bce8e90" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/360f2974fcea49c61f6d6f81554741a9eeee7168" } ], "title": "crypto: tegra - fix rctx->cryptlen calculation in tegra_gcm_do_one_req()", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "metrics": [ { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "id": "CVE-2026-80522", "role": "CISA Coordinator", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "no" }, { "Technical Impact": "total" } ], "version": "2.0.3", "timestamp": "2026-10-16T19:16:31.536900Z" } } } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2026-10-16T19:26:24.520Z" } } ] } }
