CVE-2026-31494

EUVD-2026-24864
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: macb: use the current queue number for stats

There's a potential mismatch between the memory reserved for statistics
and the amount of memory written.

gem_get_sset_count() correctly computes the number of stats based on the
active queues, whereas gem_get_ethtool_stats() indiscriminately copies
data using the maximum number of queues, and in the case the number of
active queues is less than MACB_MAX_QUEUES, this results in a OOB write
as observed in the KASAN splat.

The buggy address belongs to a 1-page vmalloc region starting at
  0xffff80008080b000 allocated at dev_ethtool+0x11f0/0x38c0
The buggy address belongs to the physical page:

Fix it by making sure the copied size only considers the active number of
queues.
