      <title>CVE-2026-90157 — bpf: Reject negative optlen in cgroup getsockopt hook</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-90157</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;bpf: Reject negative optlen in cgroup getsockopt hook&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A cgroup getsockopt BPF program can shrink ctx-&amp;gt;optlen after the
kernel getsockopt handler has run. The kernel-buffer variant, used by
TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE, only rejects values larger than the original
length.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If BPF writes a negative optlen, that value is accepted and propagated
back to the TCP getsockopt code. It can then be passed to
copy_to_sockptr() as a size_t and trigger the hardened usercopy
bytes &amp;gt; INT_MAX warning.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Reject negative ctx.optlen in __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_getsockopt_kern(),
matching the lower-bound validation already present in the sockptr-based
getsockopt hook.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
