In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thunderbolt: Validate XDomain request packet size before type cast
tb_xdp_handle_request() casts the received packet buffer to
protocol-specific structs without verifying that the allocation
is large enough for the target type. A peer can send a minimal
XDomain packet that passes the generic header length check but is
shorter than the struct accessed after the cast, causing out-of-
bounds reads from the kmemdup allocation.
Plumb the packet length through xdomain_request_work and validate
it against the expected struct size before each cast.

Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
