CVE-2026-98364 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfrm: hold net_device reference under RCU in bundle creation xfrm_bundle_create() and xfrm_create_dummy_bundle() read dst->dev into a local pointer without taking a device reference, then pass it to xfrm_fill_dst(). A concurrent RTM_DELLINK replaces dst->dev via dst_dev_put() and frees the old net_device, causing a use-after-free when xfrm6_fill_dst() later dereferences the stale dev pointer. BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in xfrm6_fill_dst+0x82c/0x860 (net/ipv6/xfrm6_policy.c:86 netdev_hold()) Read of size 8 at addr ffff8880142fe588 by task exploit/153 Call Trace: xfrm6_fill_dst+0x82c/0x860 xfrm_resolve_and_create_bundle+0x21d4/0x2bd0 xfrm_lookup_with_ifid+0x485/0x1640 ip6_dst_lookup_flow+0x19b/0x1e0 udpv6_sendmsg+0x1443/0x2dd0 Fix this by reading dst->dev via dst_dev_rcu() and keeping the RCU read-side critical section active until xfrm_fill_dst() has taken the required device references.
