CVE-2026-53006
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix possible UAF in icmpv6_rcv()
Caching saddr and daddr before pskb_pull() is problematic
since skb->head can change.
Remove these temporary variables:
- We only access &ipv6hdr(skb)->saddr and &ipv6hdr(skb)->daddr
when netdbgratelimited() is called in the slow path.
- Avoid potential future misuse after pskb_pull() call.
