CVE-2026-97940

| Sažetak |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix fib6 walker UAF on seq stop
ipv6_route_iter_active() treats a walker in FWS_U at the table root as
already unlinked. fib6_del_route() can move a still-linked walker into
that same state when the current leaf is the last route at the root,
so ipv6_route_native_seq_stop() skips fib6_walker_unlink(). The seq
private object can then be freed while it remains on
net->ipv6.fib6_walkers. A later route deletion walks the dangling list
and uses the freed walker.
Use the list head as membership state and reinitialize it when
unlinking. Keep the existing w->node check so a never-started iterator
with a zeroed private object is not treated as linked.
The same stop helper is used by /proc/net/ipv6_route and by the BPF
ipv6_route iterator. The BPF show path only widens the race. |
