CVE-2026-64548: bpf, sockmap: reject overflowing copy + len in bpf_msg_push_data()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: reject overflowing copy + len in bpfmsgpushdata()
When the scatterlist ring is full or nearly full, bpfmsgpushdata() enters a copy fallback path and computes copy + len for the page allocation size. Since len comes from BPF with arg3type = ARGANYTHING and both are u32, a crafted len can wrap the sum to a small value, causing an undersized allocation followed by an out-of-bounds memcpy.
