CVE-2026-46300
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: skbuff: preserve shared-frag marker during coalescing
skbtrycoalesce() can attach paged frags from @from to @to. If @from
has SKBFLSHAREDFRAG set, the resulting @to skb can contain the same
externally-owned or page-cache-backed frags, but the shared-frag marker
is currently lost.
That breaks the invariant relied on by later in-place writers. In
particular, ESP input checks skbhasshared_frag() before deciding
whether an uncloned nonlinear skb can skip skbcowdata(). If TCP
receive coalescing has moved shared frags into an unmarked skb, ESP can
see skbhasshared_frag() as false and decrypt in place over page-cache
backed frags.
Propagate SKBFLSHAREDFRAG when skbtrycoalesce() transfers paged
frags. The tailroom copy path does not need the marker because it copies
bytes into @to's linear data rather than transferring frag descriptors.
