CVE-2026-98379
En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad:
netfilter: ip6t_rpfilter: rechazar rutas sin inet6_dev
ip6_route_lookup() puede devolver una ruta sin errores cuya rt6i_idev es NULL. Reducir la MTU de un dispositivo de nexthop externo por debajo de IPV6_MIN_MTU destruye su inet6_dev mientras que fib6_ifdown() deja rutas usando objetos nexthop en la FIB. Un usuario sin privilegios puede construir este estado con rtnetlink en un espacio de nombres de usuario y red privado, luego desencadenar una desreferencia NULL a través de una búsqueda rpfilter IPv6:
Rechaza rutas sin un inet6_dev inmediatamente después de la búsqueda. Tales rutas no son elegibles para filtrado de ruta inversa, y la comprobación protege todas las desreferencias posteriores de rt6i_idev.
