CVE-2026-31752 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bridge: br_nd_send: validate ND option lengths br_nd_send() walks ND options according to option-provided lengths. A malformed option can make the parser advance beyond the computed option span or use a too-short source LLADDR option payload. Validate option lengths against the remaining NS option area before advancing, and only read source LLADDR when the option is large enough for an Ethernet address.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's bridge component allows for improper validation of Neighbor Discovery (ND) option lengths. The issue arises in the 'br_nd_send' function, where ND options are processed based on their specified lengths. A malformed option can cause the parser to move beyond the intended length or use an insufficient payload for the source Link-Layer Address (LLADDR) option. This vulnerability affects the Linux kernel stable group.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel stable branch, where this vulnerability has been addressed.
