Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
netfilter: nft_fib: fix stale stack leak via the OIFNAME register<br />
<br />
For NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIFNAME the destination register is declared with<br />
len = IFNAMSIZ (four 32-bit registers), but on the lookup-fail,<br />
RTN_LOCAL and oif-mismatch paths nft_fib{4,6}_eval() only writes one<br />
register via "*dest = 0". The remaining three registers are left as<br />
whatever was on the stack in nft_do_chain()&#39;s struct nft_regs, and a<br />
downstream expression that loads the register span can leak that<br />
uninitialised kernel stack to userspace.<br />
<br />
The NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT existence check has the same shape: it is only<br />
meaningful for NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIF, yet it was accepted for any result type<br />
while the eval stores a single byte via nft_reg_store8(), leaving the rest<br />
of the declared span stale.<br />
<br />
Fix both:<br />
<br />
- replace the bare "*dest = 0" in the eval with nft_fib_store_result(),<br />
which strscpy_pad()s the whole IFNAMSIZ for OIFNAME (and is already<br />
used on the other early-return path), and<br />
<br />
- restrict NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT to NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIF and declare its<br />
destination as a single u8, so the marked span matches the one byte<br />
the eval writes.
