Medium [CVE-2026-72080] Fix use-after-free during unmount
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/resctrl: Fix use-after-free during unmount During unmount or failure teardown all mon_data structures that contain monitoring event file private data are freed after which kernfs nodes are removed. However, the RDT_DELETED flag is never set for the statically allocated default resource group. A concurrent reader of an event file associated with the default resource group may, after dropping kernfs active protection, block on rdtgroup_mutex while unmount proceeds to free the file private data and destroy the kernfs node without waiting for the reader. When the mutex is released, the reader wakes up, observes that RDT_DELETED is not set for the default group, and dereferences the already-freed file private data. Do not allow a new resctrl mount if there are any waiters on default group of previous mount. During the unmount process, a timing issue can occur where a concurrent reader of an event file attempts to access memory that has already been released. This 'use-after-free' vulnerability allows a local attacker to dereference invalid memory. The most significant consequence is system instability, potentially leading to a denial of service (DoS) where the system becomes unresponsive. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-825.
Medium [CVE-2026-72026] Fix fwnode leak on state setup failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/irq-riscv-imsic-early: Fix fwnode leak on state setup failure imsic_early_acpi_init() allocates a firmware node before setting up the IMSIC state. If imsic_setup_state() fails, the function returns without freeing the allocated fwnode. Free the fwnode and clear the global pointer on this error path, matching the cleanup already done when imsic_early_probe() fails. [ tglx: Use a common cleanup path instead of copying code around ] A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's RISC-V Interrupt Controller (IMSIC) early initialization. The imsic_early_acpi_init() function allocates a firmware node but fails to free it if the IMSIC state setup encounters an error. This oversight leads to a memory leak, which could potentially result in resource exhaustion and system instability, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). Red Hat severity: Low — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-772. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: kernel.
Medium [CVE-2026-72035] Replace direct dequeue call with peek and qdisc_dequeue_peeked
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: sch_taprio: Replace direct dequeue call with peek and qdisc_dequeue_peeked When taprio's software path peeks a non-work-conserving child qdisc, the child stashes the peeked skb in its gso_skb; taprio_dequeue_from_txq() then takes the packet with a direct child ->dequeue() call, which ignores that stash, orphans the peeked skb and desyncs the child's qlen/backlog. With a qfq child this re-enters the child on an emptied list and dereferences NULL, panicking the kernel from softirq on ordinary egress. Take the packet through qdisc_dequeue_peeked(), as sch_red and sch_sfb now do. The helper returns the child's stashed skb first and is a no-op when there is none, so a work-conserving child is unaffected and the gated path now consumes the skb whose length was charged to the budget. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's taprio (Time-Aware Priority Shaper) scheduler. When the taprio software path processes network packets from a non-work-conserving child queue discipline (qdisc), it can incorrectly handle the packet buffer, leading to a null pointer dereference. This issue can cause a kernel panic during ordinary network egress operations, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) for the system. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-476.
Medium [CVE-2026-72091] reject user command submission without a command BO
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/amdxdna: reject user command submission without a command BO amdxdna_drm_submit_execbuf() passes the user-supplied command BO handle straight into amdxdna_cmd_submit() with drv_cmd == NULL. When the handle is AMDXDNA_INVALID_BO_HANDLE (0), the block that fetches job->cmd_bo is skipped, leaving it NULL, and no check rejects it on the user path (the!job->cmd_bo guard lives inside the!= INVALID branch). The job is then armed and pushed to the DRM scheduler. aie2_sched_job_run() takes the drv_cmd == NULL path and calls amdxdna_cmd_set_state(job->cmd_bo) -> amdxdna_gem_vmap(NULL) -> to_gobj(NULL)->dev, a NULL pointer dereference in the drm_sched worker. A process with access to the accel node on a system with a probed AMD NPU can trigger a kernel oops with a single AMDXDNA_EXEC_CMD ioctl (cmd_handles = 0). Only internal driver commands (SYNC_DEBUG_BO / ATTACH_DEBUG_BO) legitimately pass AMDXDNA_INVALID_BO_HANDLE, and they always set drv_cmd. Reject the invalid handle for user submissions (drv_cmd == NULL) at the submit choke point so every user path is covered. Found by 0sec automated security-research tooling ( ). A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AMD XDNA accelerator driver.
Medium [CVE-2026-72124] serialize TX state transitions under so->rx_lock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: can: isotp: serialize TX state transitions under so->rx_lock The TX state machine (so->tx.state) is driven from three contexts: sendmsg() claiming and progressing a transfer, the RX path consuming Flow Control/echo frames, and two hrtimers timing out a stalled transfer. Mixing a lock-free cmpxchg() claim in sendmsg() with hrtimer_cancel() calls made under so->rx_lock elsewhere left windows where a frame or timer callback could act on a state that had already moved on, corrupting an unrelated transfer. so->rx_lock now covers the full lifecycle of a TX claim: sendmsg() takes it to check so->tx.state is ISOTP_IDLE, switch it to ISOTP_SENDING, bump so->tx_gen and drain the previous transfer's timers - all as one critical section. isotp_rcv_fc()/isotp_rcv_cf() already run under this lock via isotp_rcv(), and isotp_rcv_echo() now takes it itself, so none of them can ever observe a transfer mid-claim. This also means a transfer can no longer be handed to sendmsg()'s cleanup paths (signal or send error) while another thread is concurrently claiming or finishing it, so those paths can cancel timers and reset the state unconditionally. isotp_release() claims the socket the same way, so a racing sendmsg() sees a consistent ISOTP_SHUTDOWN and skips arming its timer or sending.
Medium [CVE-2026-72005] avoid full teardown before work setup in probe
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rt2x00: avoid full teardown before work setup in probe rt2x00lib_probe_dev() uses the full rt2x00lib_remove_dev() teardown for all probe failures. However, drv_data allocation and workqueue allocation can fail before intf_work, autowakeup_work and sleep_work have been initialized. Do not enter the full remove path until the probe has reached the point where those work items are set up. Return directly for drv_data allocation failure, and use a small early cleanup path for workqueue allocation failure. This issue was found by our static analysis tool and then confirmed by manual review of rt2x00lib_probe_dev() and rt2x00lib_remove_dev(). The early probe exits should not call a common teardown path that assumes the later work setup has already completed. A QEMU PoC forced alloc_ordered_workqueue() to fail before the work initializers are reached. The resulting fail path entered rt2x00lib_remove_dev(), and DEBUG_OBJECTS reported invalid work drains with rt2x00lib_probe_dev() and rt2x00lib_remove_dev() in the stack. During the device probing process, if memory or workqueue allocations fail prematurely, the system attempts a full device teardown. This teardown incorrectly assumes that certain work items have been initialized, leading to invalid operations.
Medium [CVE-2026-72078] ims-pcu - validate control endpoint type
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Input: ims-pcu - validate control endpoint type The driver currently assumes that the first endpoint of the control interface is an interrupt IN endpoint without verifying it. A malicious device could provide a different endpoint type, which would then be passed to usb_fill_int_urb(), potentially leading to kernel warnings or undefined behavior. A malicious Universal Serial Bus (USB) device could exploit this by providing a different endpoint type. This improper input is then passed to the `usb_fill_int_urb()` function, which could lead to kernel warnings or undefined behavior, potentially causing system instability or a denial of service. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-1287. Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
Medium [CVE-2026-72050] Free BPID bitmap on setup failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-af: Free BPID bitmap on setup failure nix_setup_bpids() allocates bp->bpids with rvu_alloc_bitmap(), which uses a plain kcalloc(). If any of the following devm_kcalloc() allocations for the BPID mapping arrays fails, the function returns without freeing the bitmap. Free the BPID bitmap before returning from those error paths. During the setup of BPID (Back Pressure ID) mapping arrays, if memory allocation fails, the BPID bitmap is not properly freed. This can lead to a memory leak, potentially impacting system stability or performance. Red Hat severity: Low — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-772. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: kernel-rt.
Medium [CVE-2026-72112] reject re-registration of an already-bound ops
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: io_uring/bpf-ops: reject re-registration of an already-bound ops io_install_bpf() only rejects a second registration on the ctx side (ctx->bpf_ops) and sets the per-map back-pointer ops->priv unconditionally. The struct_ops link path never advances a map past BPF_STRUCT_OPS_STATE_READY, so the same io_uring_bpf_ops map can be registered more than once, and bpf_io_reg() re-resolves the target ring via fget(ops->ring_fd) on every call. A caller can therefore point the same ring_fd at a different io_ring_ctx between two BPF_LINK_CREATE calls. The second registration passes the ctx->bpf_ops check (the new ctx has none) and overwrites ops->priv, orphaning the first ctx. Teardown (io_eject_bpf()/bpf_io_unreg()) only reaches a ctx through ops->priv, so the orphaned ctx is never torn down: its ctx->loop_step keeps pointing into the struct_ops trampoline, which is freed once the map is gone. A later io_uring_enter() on the orphaned ring then calls the dangling ctx->loop_step from io_run_loop() -- a use-after-free of freed executable memory, reachable by a task with CAP_BPF + CAP_PERFMON. Reject registration when ops->priv is already set, as hid_bpf_reg() does for its struct_ops.
Medium [CVE-2026-72010] rebind mm mempolicy to effective_mems, not mems_allowed
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cgroup/cpuset: rebind mm mempolicy to effective_mems, not mems_allowed Creating a child cpuset where cpuset.mems is never set leads to a div/0 when a VMA mempolicy with MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES rebinds in response to a CPU hotplug event. Reproduction steps: 1) Create a cgroup w/ cpuset controls (do not set cpuset.mems) 2) Move the task into the child cpuset 3) Create a VMA mempolicy for that task with MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES 4) unplug and hotplug a cpu echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online 5) mempolicy rebind does a div/0 in mpol_relative_nodemask on the call to __nodes_fold() The cpuset code passes (cs->mems_allowed) which is not guaranteed to have nodes to the rebind routine. Use cs->effective_mems instead, which is guaranteed to have a non-empty nodemask once we reach that code path. [ david: add a comment, slightly rephrase description ] A local user can exploit this by configuring a child cpuset without explicitly setting its memory nodes. When a CPU hotplug event occurs, a division-by-zero error is triggered during memory policy rebind, leading to a system crash. This vulnerability results in a Denial of Service (DoS). Red Hat severity: Low — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-369.
Medium [CVE-2026-72067] Preserve per instance callback errors
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cpu: hotplug: Preserve per instance callback errors cpuhp_invoke_callback() unwinds earlier callbacks for the same hotplug state when one instance fails. The rollback path currently reuses ret, so a successful rollback can hide the original error and make the failed transition look successful. Keep the rollback result separate from the original error. When the cpuhp_invoke_callback() function attempts to unwind previous operations after a failure, it can incorrectly reuse a return value. This issue allows a successful rollback to mask the original error, causing a failed CPU hotplug transition to appear as if it succeeded. This could lead to the system reporting an incorrect state for CPU hotplug operations. Red Hat severity: Low — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-393. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: kernel-rt.
Medium [CVE-2026-68471] validate MLE common info length
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ieee80211: validate MLE common info length ieee80211_mle_common_size() uses the first common-info octet as the common information length for all known MLE types. However, ieee80211_mle_size_ok() only validates that octet for Basic, Probe Request, and TDLS MLEs. Reconfiguration MLEs also skipped the length octet when calculating the minimum common size, and Priority Access MLEs skipped validation of the advertised common information length. Keep unknown-type handling unchanged. [remove now misleading comment] A flaw was found in the Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11) component of the Linux kernel. However, the `ieee80211_mle_size_ok()` function did not properly validate this length for all MLE types, specifically for Reconfiguration and Priority Access MLEs. This oversight could allow a remote attacker to provide malformed Wi-Fi management frames, potentially leading to a denial of service or other unspecified impacts due to improper handling of data lengths. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-130. Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
Medium [CVE-2026-68461] device property: initialize the remaining fields of fwnode_handle in fwnode_init
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: device property: initialize the remaining fields of fwnode_handle in fwnode_init() If a firmware node is allocated on the stack (for instance: temporary software node whose life-time we control) or on the heap - but using a non-zeroing allocation function - and initialized using fwnode_init(), its secondary pointer will contain uninitialized memory which likely will be neither NULL nor IS_ERR() and so may end up being dereferenced (for example: in dev_to_swnode()). Set fwnode->secondary to NULL on initialization. While at it: initialize the remaining fields of struct fwnode_handle too just to be sure. [ Fix typo in commit message. - Danilo ] This can occur if a non-zeroing allocation function is used. If this uninitialized pointer is subsequently dereferenced, it could lead to system instability or a denial of service (DoS). Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-824. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: kernel-rt.
Medium [CVE-2026-68465] fix esdhc_change_pinstate to allow default state restore
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: sdhci-esdhc-imx: fix esdhc_change_pinstate() to allow default state restore esdhc_change_pinstate() checks for pins_100mhz and pins_200mhz at the top of the function and returns -EINVAL if either is not defined. This prevents the default case from ever being reached, which means devices with a sleep pinctrl state but without high-speed pin states (100mhz/ 200mhz) can never restore their default pin configuration. Move the IS_ERR checks for pins_100mhz and pins_200mhz into their respective switch cases. The `esdhc_change_pinstate()` function contains an error in how it checks for high-speed pin states. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-841. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: kernel.
Medium [CVE-2026-68478] reject a card that reports too many blocks
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: memstick: ms_block: reject a card that reports too many blocks msb_ftl_initialize() computes the zone count from the card block count with no bound: msb->zone_count = msb->block_count / MS_BLOCKS_IN_ZONE;... for (i = 0; i zone_count; i++) msb->free_block_count[i] = MS_BLOCKS_IN_ZONE; msb->block_count is a card value. msb_read_boot_blocks() reads number_of_blocks from the card boot page and byte swaps it. free_block_count is a fixed int[MS_MAX_ZONES]. MS_MAX_ZONES is 16, so the valid indices are 0 to 15. The init loop above indexes it by zone_count. msb_mark_block_used() and msb_mark_block_unused() index it by pba / MS_BLOCKS_IN_ZONE, for pba up to block_count - 1. A card may report up to 65535 blocks. That writes past free_block_count[] and corrupts struct msb_data. A larger count runs the init loop past the end too. A real Memory Stick has at most 16 zones. This out-of-bounds write can lead to memory corruption within the kernel, potentially resulting in a system crash or other unpredictable behavior. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-787. Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
Medium [CVE-2026-68467] use SPI match data for chip caps
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: mchp23k256: use SPI match data for chip caps The driver stores chip capacity information in both the OF match table and the SPI id table. Probe currently uses of_device_get_match_data(), so a non-OF SPI modalias match falls back to mchp23k256_caps even when the SPI id table selected a different part. Use spi_get_device_match_data() so SPI id-table driver_data is consumed when OF match data is absent. This keeps the existing default fallback while avoiding the wrong MTD geometry for id-table-only matches. This driver, responsible for managing memory technology devices (MTD), incorrectly determined the capabilities of certain SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) flash chips. This could lead to the system misinterpreting the memory device's layout, potentially causing data corruption or system instability. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-348. Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
Medium [CVE-2026-72058] fix duplicate HDLC netdev allocation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ixp4xx_hss: fix duplicate HDLC netdev allocation ixp4xx_hss_probe() allocates two HDLC netdevs. The first one is stored in ndev, initialized, and registered with register_hdlc_device(). The second one is stored in port->netdev and later used by the remove path for unregister_hdlc_device() and free_netdev(). This means that the registered netdev is not the same object that is unregistered and freed on remove. It also leaks the first allocation if the second alloc_hdlcdev() call fails, and the first allocation is not checked before ndev is used. Older code allocated the HDLC netdev only once and stored the same object in both the local variable and port->netdev. The buggy conversion split this into two alloc_hdlcdev() calls. A later rename changed the local variable name to ndev, but the underlying mismatch remained. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ixp4xx_hss network driver. The `ixp4xx_hss_probe()` function incorrectly allocates two High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) network devices instead of one. This programming error leads to a memory leak, as the initially allocated device is not properly unregistered and freed, which can impact system stability. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-772.
Medium [CVE-2026-74442] avoid destroy_workqueue(NULL) on vkms init failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/vmwgfx: avoid destroy_workqueue(NULL) on vkms init failure Two paths through vmw_vkms_init() can leave vmw->crc_workq NULL while still leaving the rest of the driver in a state that calls vmw_vkms_cleanup() at module unload: 1. vmw_host_get_guestinfo(GUESTINFO_VBLANK,...) failing or returning an oversized buffer -- the common case on hosts without a VBLANK guestinfo entry -- early-returned before the workqueue allocation. 2. alloc_ordered_workqueue() returning NULL on memory pressure. vmw_vkms_cleanup() then calls destroy_workqueue(NULL), which dereferences wq->name and panics. Fix the first case by removing the early return: vmw->vkms_enabled is already false on the rpci-failure path so no work will ever be queued, and allocating the workqueue unconditionally keeps the control flow simple. Fix the second case by guarding the cleanup with a NULL check, since alloc_ordered_workqueue() can still fail under low memory. This vulnerability occurs when the `vmw_vkms_init()` function fails to initialize a workqueue, leaving a pointer as NULL. During module unload, the `vmw_vkms_cleanup()` function attempts to destroy this NULL workqueue, leading to a kernel panic. A local attacker could potentially trigger this condition, resulting in a system crash and a Denial of Service (DoS).
Medium [CVE-2026-74519] don't free uninitialized dev_name on error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: devicetree: don't free uninitialized dev_name on error path dt_remember_or_free_map() duplicates dev_name for each map entry. If kstrdup_const() fails, dt_free_map() frees dev_name in all num_maps entries, including entries that have not been initialized. Some pinctrl drivers, including pinctrl-imx, allocate the map with kmalloc() and leave dev_name for the core to initialize. The untouched entries therefore contain uninitialized data which is passed to kfree_const(). Reproduced on qemu's mcimx6ul-evk (pinctrl-imx) with failslab injection while binding the pinctrl-consuming device, under KASAN: BUG: KASAN: double-free in dt_free_map+0x34/0xa4 Free of addr c425a900 by task init/1 kfree from dt_free_map+0x34/0xa4 dt_free_map from dt_remember_or_free_map+0x184/0x198 dt_remember_or_free_map from pinctrl_dt_to_map+0x33c/0x4c8 pinctrl_dt_to_map from create_pinctrl+0x9c/0x5c0 Initialize all dev_name fields to NULL before duplicating the device name, making the full-map cleanup safe after a partial failure. An issue within the pinctrl subsystem's device tree handling could lead to a double-free vulnerability. This occurs when an error path during device binding attempts to free uninitialized memory, potentially allowing a local attacker to trigger a system crash and cause a denial of service.
Medium [CVE-2026-74561] avoid unlocked f6i_list walk in nh_rt_cache_flush
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nexthop: avoid unlocked f6i_list walk in nh_rt_cache_flush nh_rt_cache_flush() walks nh->f6i_list during an RTNL-serialized nexthop replace without holding nh->lock, racing the unlocked IPv6 route add/delete that mutate the list under nh->lock and free fib6_info entries (nh_rt_cache_flush() is inlined into rtm_new_nexthop()): BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in nh_rt_cache_flush (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:2243) Read of size 8 at addr ffff888012953e18 by task exploit/146 nh_rt_cache_flush (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:2243) replace_nexthop (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:2610) rtm_new_nexthop (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:3323) rtnetlink_rcv_msg (net/core/rtnetlink.c:7076) Unlike the other f6i_list walks, this one bumps each route's sernum via fib6_update_sernum_upto_root(), which needs tb6_lock; taking nh->lock around it would invert the established tb6_lock -> nh->lock order and deadlock. As the only purpose is to invalidate cached dsts, bump the IPv6 sernum for the whole netns with rt_genid_bump_ipv6() instead, mirroring the rt_cache_flush() already done for IPv4 just above. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, specifically within its nexthop component responsible for network routing. A timing issue, known as a race condition, allows the system to access memory after it has been freed.
