If a link name which is not null-terminated is passed through netlink, strstr() and similar functions can cause buffer overrun. This causes the above issue. This patch changes the nla_policy for bearer-related names from NLA_STRING to NLA_NUL_STRING. This resolves the issue by ensuring that only null-terminated strings are accepted as bearer-related names. syzbot reported similar uninit-value issue related to bearer names [2]. The root cause of this issue is that a non-null-terminated bearer name was passed. This patch also resolved this issue. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52845 to this issue.

Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: net/tipc/netlink.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6744008c354bca2e4686a5b6056ee6b535d9f67d https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2426425d686b43adbc4f2f4a367b494f06f159d6 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2199260c42e6fbc5af8adae3bf78e623407c91b0 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b33d130f07f1decd756b849ab03c23d11d4dd294 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3907b89cd17fcc23e9a80789c36856f00ece0ba8 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4c731e98fe4d678e87ba3e4d45d3cf0a5a193dc4 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/abc1582119e8c4af14cedb0db6541fd603f45a04 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/560992f41c0cea44b7603bc9e6c73bffbf6b5709 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/19b3f72a41a8751e26bffc093bb7e1cef29ad579
