CVE-2026-46260

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> ipv6: Fix out-of-bound access in fib6_add_rt2node().<br /> <br /> syzbot reported out-of-bound read in fib6_add_rt2node(). [0]<br /> <br /> When IPv6 route is created with RTA_NH_ID, struct fib6_info<br /> does not have the trailing struct fib6_nh.<br /> <br /> The cited commit started to check !iter-&gt;fib6_nh-&gt;fib_nh_gw_family<br /> to ensure that rt6_qualify_for_ecmp() will return false for iter.<br /> <br /> If iter-&gt;nh is not NULL, rt6_qualify_for_ecmp() returns false anyway.<br /> <br /> Let&amp;#39;s check iter-&gt;nh before reading iter-&gt;fib6_nh and avoid OOB read.<br /> <br /> [0]:<br /> BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in fib6_add_rt2node+0x349c/0x3500 net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c:1142<br /> Read of size 1 at addr ffff8880384ba6de by task syz.0.18/5500<br /> <br /> CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 5500 Comm: syz.0.18 Not tainted syzkaller #0 PREEMPT(full)<br /> Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014<br /> Call Trace:<br /> <br /> dump_stack_lvl+0xe8/0x150 lib/dump_stack.c:120<br /> print_address_description mm/kasan/report.c:378 [inline]<br /> print_report+0xba/0x230 mm/kasan/report.c:482<br /> kasan_report+0x117/0x150 mm/kasan/report.c:595<br /> fib6_add_rt2node+0x349c/0x3500 net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c:1142<br /> fib6_add_rt2node_nh net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c:1363 [inline]<br /> fib6_add+0x910/0x18c0 net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c:1531<br /> __ip6_ins_rt net/ipv6/route.c:1351 [inline]<br /> ip6_route_add+0xde/0x1b0 net/ipv6/route.c:3957<br /> inet6_rtm_newroute+0x268/0x19e0 net/ipv6/route.c:5660<br /> rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x7d5/0xbe0 net/core/rtnetlink.c:6958<br /> netlink_rcv_skb+0x232/0x4b0 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2550<br /> netlink_unicast_kernel net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1318 [inline]<br /> netlink_unicast+0x80f/0x9b0 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1344<br /> netlink_sendmsg+0x813/0xb40 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1894<br /> sock_sendmsg_nosec net/socket.c:727 [inline]<br /> __sock_sendmsg net/socket.c:742 [inline]<br /> ____sys_sendmsg+0xa68/0xad0 net/socket.c:2592<br /> ___sys_sendmsg+0x2a5/0x360 net/socket.c:2646<br /> __sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2678 [inline]<br /> __do_sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2683 [inline]<br /> __se_sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2681 [inline]<br /> __x64_sys_sendmsg+0x1bd/0x2a0 net/socket.c:2681<br /> do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 [inline]<br /> do_syscall_64+0xe2/0xf80 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94<br /> entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f<br /> RIP: 0033:0x7f9316b9aeb9<br /> Code: ff c3 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 48 89 f8 48 89 f7 48 89 d6 48 89 ca 4d 89 c2 4d 89 c8 4c 8b 4c 24 08 0f 05 3d 01 f0 ff ff 73 01 c3 48 c7 c1 e8 ff ff ff f7 d8 64 89 01 48<br /> RSP: 002b:00007ffd8809b678 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 000000000000002e<br /> RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007f9316e15fa0 RCX: 00007f9316b9aeb9<br /> RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000200000004380 RDI: 0000000000000003<br /> RBP: 00007f9316c08c1f R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000<br /> R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000000000000000<br /> R13: 00007f9316e15fac R14: 00007f9316e15fa0 R15: 00007f9316e15fa0<br /> <br /> <br /> Allocated by task 5499:<br /> kasan_save_stack mm/kasan/common.c:57 [inline]<br /> kasan_save_track+0x3e/0x80 mm/kasan/common.c:78<br /> poison_kmalloc_redzone mm/kasan/common.c:398 [inline]<br /> __kasan_kmalloc+0x93/0xb0 mm/kasan/common.c:415<br /> kasan_kmalloc include/linux/kasan.h:263 [inline]<br /> __do_kmalloc_node mm/slub.c:5657 [inline]<br /> __kmalloc_noprof+0x40c/0x7e0 mm/slub.c:5669<br /> kmalloc_noprof include/linux/slab.h:961 [inline]<br /> kzalloc_noprof include/linux/slab.h:1094 [inline]<br /> fib6_info_alloc+0x30/0xf0 net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c:155<br /> ip6_route_info_create+0x142/0x860 net/ipv6/route.c:3820<br /> ip6_route_add+0x49/0x1b0 net/ipv6/route.c:3949<br /> inet6_rtm_newroute+0x268/0x19e0 net/ipv6/route.c:5660<br /> rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x7d5/0xbe0 net/core/rtnetlink.c:6958<br /> netlink_rcv_skb+0x232/0x4b0 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2550<br /> netlink_unicast_kernel net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1318 [inline]<br /> netlink_unicast+0x80f/0x9b0 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1344<br /> netlink_sendmsg+0x813/0xb40 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1894<br /> sock_sendmsg_nosec net/socket.c:727 [inline]<br /> __sock_sendmsg net/socket.c:742 [inline]<br /> ____sys_sendmsg+0xa68/0xad0 net/socket.c:2592<br /> ___sys_s<br /> ---truncated---
