CVE-2026-64550: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: qualcomm: rmnet: validate MAP frame length before ingress parsing When ingress deaggregation is disabled,
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: qualcomm: rmnet: validate MAP frame length before ingress parsing
When ingress deaggregation is disabled, rmnet_map_ingress_handler() passes
the skb straight to __rmnet_map_ingress_handler(), skipping the length
validation that rmnet_map_deaggregate() performs on the aggregated path.
The parser then dereferences the MAP header and csum header/trailer based on
the on-wire pkt_len without checking skb->len, so a short frame is read out
of bounds:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in rmnet_map_checksum_downlink_packet
Read of size 1 at addr ffff88801118ed00 by task exploit/147

Factor that validation out of rmnet_map_deaggregate() into
rmnet_map_validate_packet_len() and run it on the no-aggregation path too.
The MAP header is bounds-checked first, since this path can receive a frame
shorter than the header.
