      <title>CVE-2026-13216 — Out-of-bounds stack write in Zephyr virtio PCI driver from unvalidated device-supplied capability length</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2026-13216</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; zephyrproject zephyr&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The virtio PCI driver (drivers/virtio/virtio_pci.c) parses a device&amp;#39;s PCI capability list during driver initialization. In virtio_pci_read_cap() the device-supplied capability length byte cap_len (read from PCI config space via pcie_conf_read()) was only checked with assert(tmp.cap_len == cap_struct_size). That assert resolves to __ASSERT_NO_MSG(), gated by CONFIG_ASSERT, which defaults off in production builds, so the value reached the copy logic completely unvalidated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The length then drives a loop that copies extra capability dwords into a fixed-size stack buffer supplied by the caller. A cap_len below the 24-byte base struct virtio_pci_cap underflows the unsigned extra_data_words count to a near-SIZE_MAX value, producing an effectively unbounded stack write; a cap_len above the caller&amp;#39;s buffer (up to 255) writes up to roughly 228 bytes of device-controlled data past the buffer. Both are out-of-bounds writes of attacker-controlled content executed in kernel mode during boot-time device probe.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The input originates from the virtio device. In the common deployment where Zephyr runs as a guest under a hypervisor, the device backend is the host, which already fully outranks the guest, so the bug yields no privilege escalation. The exploitable case is a virtio device that is untrusted relative to the Zephyr kernel — an untrusted or physical/passthrough virtio PCIe device on a bare-metal system, or a confidential-computing posture where the guest must defend against the host —…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
