CVE-2026-74715

Estado: RecibidaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Fix netns reference imbalance in conntrack kfuncs

The opts argument of the BPF conntrack kfuncs can point to a shared map value. __bpf_nf_ct_lookup() and __bpf_nf_ct_alloc_entry() read opts->netns_id separately when acquiring and releasing the network namespace reference.

The reference imbalance can occur as follows:

The reverse transition leaks the reference. Repeating the unmatched put can destroy a live namespace and crash later users.

The kernel reported:

Snapshot every input field of opts with READ_ONCE() before validating or using it.

The netns_id snapshot keeps the namespace get/put pair balanced, while the other snapshots keep the remaining options from changing partway through an invocation. The individual reads can still observe an inconsistent combination during a concurrent update, but each selected field value remains stable for that invocation.
