In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/tls: fix slab-out-of-bounds bug in decrypt_internal The memory size of tls_ctx->rx.iv for AES128-CCM is 12 setting in tls_set_sw_offload(). The return value of crypto_aead_ivsize() for "ccm(aes)" is 16. So memcpy() require 16 bytes from 12 bytes memory space will trigger slab-out-of-bounds bug as following: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in decrypt_internal+0x385/0xc40 [tls] Read of size 16 at addr ffff888114e84e60 by task tls/10911 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x34/0x44 print_report.cold+0x5e/0x5db ? decrypt_internal+0x385/0xc40 [tls] kasan_report+0xab/0x120 ? decrypt_internal+0x385/0xc40 [tls] kasan_check_range+0xf9/0x1e0 memcpy+0x20/0x60 decrypt_internal+0x385/0xc40 [tls] ? tls_get_rec+0x2e0/0x2e0 [tls] ? process_rx_list+0x1a5/0x420 [tls] ? tls_setup_from_iter.constprop.0+0x2e0/0x2e0 [tls] decrypt_skb_update+0x9d/0x400 [tls] tls_sw_recvmsg+0x3c8/0xb50 [tls] Allocated by task 10911: kasan_save_stack+0x1e/0x40 __kasan_kmalloc+0x81/0xa0 tls_set_sw_offload+0x2eb/0xa20 [tls] tls_setsockopt+0x68c/0x700 [tls] __sys_setsockopt+0xfe/0x1b0 Replace the crypto_aead_ivsize() with prot->iv_size + prot->salt_size when memcpy() iv value in TLS_1_3_VERSION scenario.

Suggested hunting (rule-based inference)
SecOps Signal recommendation (rule-based inference). These steps are hunting hypotheses from the vulnerability class; they do not state or imply that exploitation occurred here or anywhere.
Matched network-unauthenticated (CVSS AV:N, CVSS PR:N, CVSS UI:N)
Exposure
- Identify devices reporting this CVE and note which expose the affected service to untrusted networks.Telemetry: DeviceTvmSoftwareVulnerabilities · A network-reachable, no-privilege vector makes internet-facing instances the first exposure question. · Rule network-unauthenticated
Exploitation evidence
- Review inbound connections to the affected service from unexpected sources since the advisory date.Telemetry: DeviceNetworkEvents · Hunting hypothesis from the CVSS vector; it does not show that exploitation occurred. · Rule network-unauthenticated
Response
- Confirm the source-stated update is installed and the CVE is no longer reported.Telemetry: DeviceTvmSoftwareVulnerabilities · A follow-up inventory check verifies remediation. · Rule network-unauthenticated
