The remaining three registers are left as\nwhatever was on the stack in nft_do_chain()'s struct nft_regs, and a\ndownstream expression that loads the register span can leak that\nuninitialised kernel stack to userspace.\n\nThe NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT existence check has the same shape: it is only\nmeaningful for NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIF, yet it was accepted for any result type\nwhile the eval stores a single byte via nft_reg_store8(), leaving the rest\nof the declared span stale.\n\nFix both:\n\n - replace the bare \"*dest = 0\" in the eval with nft_fib_store_result(),\n   which strscpy_pad()s the whole IFNAMSIZ for OIFNAME (and is already\n   used on the other early-return path), and\n\n - restrict NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT to NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIF and declare its\n   destination as a single u8, so the marked span matches the one byte\n   the eval writes.","published":"2026-06-25T09:16:31.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-15T02:20:02.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":5.5,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-401"],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00129,"percentile":0.02501,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.13%).
