UBUNTU-CVE-2025-71112: High severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: hns3: add VLAN id validation before using Currently, the VLAN id may be used without validation when receive a VLAN configuration mailbox from VF. The length of vlandelfailbmap is BITSTOLONGS(VLANNVID). It may cause out-of-bounds memory access once the VLAN id is bigger than or equal to VLANNVID. Therefore, VLAN id needs to be checked to ensure it is within the range of VLANNVID.

Event History
Frequently Asked Questions
Which systems are most relevant to this issue?
The affected software list includes Ubuntu linux, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-aws-fips, linux-azure-fips, linux-fips, linux-gcp-fips, and linux-realtime kernels. Exposure is specifically tied to the HNS3 network driver processing VLAN configuration mailboxes from a VF.
What access does an attacker need?
The severity vector classifies the attack vector as local and privileges required as none. The described trigger requires a VLAN configuration mailbox from a VF containing an out-of-range VLAN ID.
How can I determine whether a system may be affected?
Confirm whether the host is running one of the listed Ubuntu kernel packages and uses the HNS3 driver in a configuration where VFs can send VLAN configuration mailboxes. The provided data does not identify fixed or affected package version numbers.
