    Medium [CVE-2026-68299] fix BUG_ON in vmxnet3_get_hdr_len for Geneve packets

    CVE-2026-68299Source published Source updated

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vmxnet3: fix BUG_ON in vmxnet3_get_hdr_len() for Geneve packets vmxnet3_get_hdr_len() assumes gdesc->rcd.v4/v6/tcp always describe the outer header, but for a Geneve-encapsulated packet the device can set them based on the inner header instead, signalled by the VMXNET3_RCD_HDR_INNER_SHIFT bit in the completion descriptor. Since the function never skips the outer encapsulation, this mismatch triggers: - BUG_ON(hdr.ipv4->protocol!= IPPROTO_TCP), because the outer protocol is UDP (Geneve), not TCP. - BUG_ON(hdr.eth->h_proto!=...), when the tunnel's outer and inner IP versions differ (e.g. outer IPv6/inner IPv4 or vice versa).
