CVE-2022-49094 is a slab-out-of-bounds vulnerability in the Linux kernel's TLS module, specifically affecting the decrypt_internal function. This flaw arises because the memory allocated for AES128-CCM IVs is insufficient, leading to a buffer overflow during a memcpy operation. Rated 7.1 HIGH (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H), it allows a local attacker to achieve high confidentiality and availability impacts. There is currently no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this vulnerability.
