Out-of-bounds Write Affecting kernel-debug-devel-matched package, versions *
Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version.

There is no fixed version for Centos:10 kernel-debug-devel-matched.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-debug-devel-matched package and not the kernel-debug-devel-matched package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:10 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: fix BPF_PROG_QUERY OOB write and cgroup backward compat
BPF_PROG_QUERY writes back the 'query.revision' field unconditionally to userspace. If userspace passes a smaller 'bpf_attr' structure (e.g. 40 bytes, which was the layout before the addition of 'query.revision'), the kernel performs an out-of-bounds write.
Fix this by propagating the user-provided attribute size 'uattr_size' down to the cgroup query handlers, and conditionally skipping writing the revision field to userspace when the provided buffer size is insufficient.
query.revision in bpf_mprog_query is structurally identical to the cgroup case: a late tail field, written unconditionally.
But the backward-compat hazard is not the same.
The min-historical-size test is per command, and bpf_mprog_query only serves attach types that were born with revision in the struct:
- tcx_prog_query -> BPF_TCX_INGRESS/EGRESS
- netkit_prog_query -> BPF_NETKIT_PRIMARY/PEER
tcx, netkit, the revision field, and bpf_mprog_query itself all landed in the same v6.6 merge window (053c8e1f235d added the mprog query API + revision; tcx in e420bed02507, netkit in 35dfaad7188c). There has never been a tcx/netkit BPF_PROG_QUERY userspace that doesn't know about revision. So for these commands the minimum legitimate struct already covers offset 56-64 — no old binary can be broken here.
Contrast with cgroup: BPF_PROG_QUERY on cgroup attach types shipped in 2017; revision write-back was bolted on years later (120933984460). That path has a real population of pre-revision callers.
