  "summary": "bpf: fix BPF_PROG_QUERY OOB write and cgroup backward compat",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbpf: fix BPF_PROG_QUERY OOB write and cgroup backward compat\n\nBPF_PROG_QUERY writes back the 'query.revision' field unconditionally to\nuserspace. If userspace passes a smaller 'bpf_attr' structure (e.g. 40\nbytes, which was the layout before the addition of 'query.revision'),\nthe kernel performs an out-of-bounds write.\n\nFix this by propagating the user-provided attribute size 'uattr_size'\ndown to the cgroup query handlers, and conditionally skipping writing\nthe revision field to userspace when the provided buffer size is\ninsufficient.\n\nquery.revision in bpf_mprog_query is structurally identical to the\ncgroup case: a late tail field, written unconditionally.\n\nBut the backward-compat hazard is not the same.\n\nThe min-historical-size test is per command, and bpf_mprog_query only\nserves attach types that were born with revision in the struct:\n\n- tcx_prog_query -> BPF_TCX_INGRESS/EGRESS\n- netkit_prog_query -> BPF_NETKIT_PRIMARY/PEER\n\ntcx, netkit, the revision field, and bpf_mprog_query itself all landed in\nthe same v6.6 merge window (053c8e1f235d added the mprog query API +\nrevision; tcx in e420bed02507, netkit in 35dfaad7188c). There has never\nbeen a tcx/netkit BPF_PROG_QUERY userspace that doesn't know about\nrevision. So for these commands the minimum legitimate struct already\ncovers offset 56-64 \u2014 no old binary can be broken here.\n\nContrast with cgroup: BPF_PROG_QUERY on cgroup attach types shipped in\n2017; revision write-back was bolted on years later (120933984460). That\npath has a real population of pre-revision callers.",
