CVE-2026-98383HIGH(7.8)
EPSS 0.2%
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Disallow bpf_skb_pull_data() for LWT_SEG6LOCAL
An LWT_SEG6LOCAL program can invalidate its cached SRH with
bpf_lwt_seg6_adjust_srh() and then call bpf_skb_pull_data(). The latter
may reallocate skb->head, leaving the per-CPU SRH pointer dangling.
Post-program SRH validation then writes through that pointer.
Disallow bpf_skb_pull_data() for LWT_SEG6LOCAL programs so the verifier
rejects this unsafe helper combination. Other LWT program types continue
to expose the helper through lwt_out_func_proto().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Skip unsettled links in link iterator
bpf_link_prime() inserts a link into link_idr before anon_inode_getfile()
succeeds and before bpf_link_settle() publishes the ID in link->id.
bpf_link_by_id() treats such an ID-zero link as unsettled, but the link
iterator takes a reference without this check.
If anon_inode_getfile() then fails, the creator removes the ID and frees
its still-private link directly. The iterator is left with a dangling
reference and its next bpf_link_put() accesses freed memory.
Treat ID-zero entries as transient in bpf_link_get_curr_or_next(), just as
bpf_link_by_id() does.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
veth: manage XDP program pointers during channel resize
veth_set_channels() tears down XDP resources for removed RX queues
without clearing rq->xdp_prog. If the program is then detached or
replaced, those queues keep the old pointer after bpf_prog_put().
A later channel increase can re-enable NAPI and run the freed program.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject dev-bound-only programs on other devices
__bpf_offload_dev_match() falls back to comparing offdev pointers after an
exact netdev mismatch. Bound-only programs normally have NULL offdevs, so
unrelated netdevs compare equal. A bound-only program on an
offload-registered netdev can instead inherit a real offdev and match a
sibling port. With CAP_BPF and CAP_NET_ADMIN, a caller can use
bpf(BPF_LINK_CREATE) with a different target ifindex to run metadata kfuncs
specialized for the bound driver on the target driver's xdp_buff. Running a
veth-bound program on tun reads beyond tun's bare stack xdp_buff as a
veth_xdp_buff.

CVE-2026-98376HIGH(7.8)
EPSS 0.1%
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Use array_map_meta_equal for percpu array inner map replacement
percpu_array_map_ops.map_meta_equal points to the generic
bpf_map_meta_equal(), which does not compare max_entries. When a
percpu array serves as an inner map, replacing it with one that has
fewer max_entries bypasses the check. Since percpu_array_map_gen_lookup()
inlines the original template's index_mask as a JIT immediate, a lookup
on the replacement map can access pptrs[] out of bounds.
Point percpu_array_map_ops.map_meta_equal to array_map_meta_equal(),
which already enforces the max_entries equality check.
Add a selftest to verify that replacing a percpu array inner map with
a differently-sized one is rejected.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: reject IDR error pointers when deleting actions
tcf_action_delete() drops the reference held by its lookup before calling
tcf_idr_delete_index() with the saved action index. An unlocked
classifier can remove that action and reserve the same IDR slot with
ERR_PTR(-EBUSY) in between.
tcf_idr_delete_index() only checks the lookup result for NULL. It
therefore treats the reservation as a tc_action and dereferences
tcfa_bindcnt. A hardware execution breakpoint was used to schedule the
interleaving without changing the kernel source. KASAN reported this
decoded trace:

CVE-2026-98375NONE
EPSS 0.2%
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xen/netfront: drop RX packets with a short Ethernet header
handle_incoming_queue() pulls pull_to bytes into the head before
calling eth_type_trans(). pull_to is the length of the first RX slot,
capped at RX_COPY_THRESHOLD, and that length comes from the backend.
Nothing checks it against ETH_HLEN.
If the first slot is shorter than ETH_HLEN and more slots follow, the
head ends up shorter than an Ethernet header while skb->len is longer,
and eth_type_trans() BUG()s in __skb_pull(). If the whole packet is
shorter than ETH_HLEN, eth_type_trans() reads the header past the end
of the data instead.
Pull at least ETH_HLEN, and drop the packet if that fails, which also
drops packets too short to hold an Ethernet header. This also checks
the return value of the pull, which was ignored.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ip6t_rpfilter: reject routes without inet6_dev
ip6_route_lookup() can return an error-free route whose rt6i_idev is
NULL. Lowering an external nexthop device's MTU below IPV6_MIN_MTU tears
down its inet6_dev while fib6_ifdown() leaves routes using nexthop objects
in the FIB. An unprivileged user can construct this state with rtnetlink
in a private user and network namespace, then trigger a NULL dereference
through an IPv6 rpfilter lookup:

CVE-2026-98377NONE
EPSS 0.2%
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vlan: require the MAC header to be present in __vlan_insert_inner_tag()
__vlan_insert_inner_tag() only guarantees head room via skb_cow_head(),
never that mac_len bytes of MAC header are present. Its ETH_HLEN
wrappers - __vlan_insert_tag() under skb_vlan_push(), and
vlan_insert_tag() under validate_xmit_vlan() on the generic transmit
path - therefore rewrite the first 16 bytes at skb->data: a 12-byte
memmove plus two 2-byte stores at +12 and +14. No caller supplies the
bound, while the pop helpers use skb_ensure_writable()/pskb_may_pull().
An IFF_TUN device has hard_header_len == 0, so packet_snd() accepts a
one-byte AF_PACKET/SOCK_RAW frame. The first vlan push only sets a
hwaccel tag; the next - clsact "action vlan push" or
bpf_skb_vlan_push() - enters the helper with skb->len still 1. The
head comes from skbuff_small_head without __GFP_ZERO, so each push
drags bytes from beyond skb->tail into the frame. After three the
one-byte send leaves as 13 bytes carrying 11 bytes of uninitialised
slab:
0000: 5a b3 62 12 80 88 ff ff 00 b3 62 12 81
`------------------------------'
only 0x5a was sent; the rest is slab, here the top 56 bits of a
linear-map address
Require the MAC header the helper rewrites to be present, so such a
frame is dropped rather than transmitted.
