Summary

CVE-2025-32366 is a medium-severity Improper Handling of Length Parameter Inconsistency (CWE-130) vulnerability in Kernel (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 4.8 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 31th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

In ConnMan through 1.44, parse_rr in dnsproxy.c has a memcpy length that depends on an RR RDLENGTH value, i.e., *rdlen=ntohs(rr->rdlen) and memcpy(response+offset,*end,*rdlen) without a check for whether the sum of *end and *rdlen exceeds max. Consequently, *rdlen may be larger…

than the amount of remaining packet data in the current state of parsing. Values of stack memory locations may be sent over the network in a response.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SA-11 Developer Testing and Evaluation good match

Developer testing and evaluation can discover length-parameter inconsistencies through targeted parsing tests.

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

Input validation enforces correct length-to-data consistency checks on parsed messages before processing.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing in development can detect length-inconsistency vulnerabilities before deployment.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and length checks that directly address inconsistent length fields.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements include explicit rules for handling message lengths and data structures.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture principles require robust parsing and bounds checking to prevent length-related flaws.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards directly prohibit improper length handling and enforce defensive parsing practices.
