DEBIAN-CVE-2026-64132
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: ioam: refresh hdr pointer before ioam6event() Reported by Sashiko: In ipv6hopioam(), the hdr pointer is initialized to point into the skb's linear data buffer. Later, the code calls skbensurewritable(), which might reallocate the buffer: if (skbensurewritable(skb, optoff + 2 + hdr->optlen)) goto drop; / Trace pointer may have changed / trace = (struct ioam6tracehdr )(skbnetworkheader(skb) + optoff + sizeof(hdr)); ioam6filltracedata(skb, ns, trace, true); ioam6event(IOAM6EVENTTRACE, devnet(skb->dev), GFPATOMIC, (void *)trace, hdr->optlen - 2); If the skb is cloned or lacks sufficient linear headroom, skbensurewritable() will invoke pskbexpandhead(), which reallocates the skb's data buffer and frees the old one, invalidating pointers to it. While the code recalculates the trace pointer immediately after the call to skbensurewritable(), it fails to recalculate the hdr pointer. This patch fixes the above by recalculating the hdr pointer before passing hdr->optlen to ioam6_event(), so that we avoid any UaF.
