{"cve":"CVE-2026-63914","nvd":{"published":"2026-07-19T16:17:09.373","modified":"2026-10-19T21:17:10.580","status":"Undergoing Analysis","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nxfrm: route MIGRATE notifications to caller's netns\n\nxfrm_send_migrate() in net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c and pfkey_send_migrate()\nin net/key/af_key.c both hardcode &init_net for the multicast that\nannounces a successful XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE / SADB_X_MIGRATE.\n\nXFRM_MSG_MIGRATE arrives on a per-netns NETLINK_XFRM socket, and the\nrest of the xfrm/af_key netlink path was made netns-aware in 2008.\nThe other 14 multicast paths in xfrm_user.c route their event using\nxs_net(x), xp_net(xp) or sock_net(skb->sk); only the migrate path\nwas missed.\n\nTwo consequences of the init_net hardcoding:\n\n  1. The notification (selector, old/new endpoint addresses, and the\n     km_address) is delivered to listeners on init_net's\n     XFRMNLGRP_MIGRATE / pfkey BROADCAST_ALL groups rather than on\n     the issuing netns. An IKE daemon running in init_net therefore\n     receives migration notifications originating from any other\n     netns on the host.\n\n  2. An IKE daemon running inside a non-init netns and subscribed\n     to its own XFRMNLGRP_MIGRATE / pfkey groups never receives the\n     notification of its own migration. IKEv2 MOBIKE / address-update\n     handling inside a netns is silently broken.\n\nThread struct net through km_migrate() and the xfrm_mgr.migrate\nfunction pointer, drop the &init_net override in xfrm_send_migrate()\nand pfkey_send_migrate(), and pass the caller's net (already in\nscope in xfrm_migrate() via sock_net(skb->sk)) all the way down.\nstruct xfrm_mgr is in-tree only and not exported as a stable API,\nso the function-pointer signature change is internal.\n\npfkey_broadcast() is already netns-aware via net_generic(net,\npfkey_net_id) since the pernet conversion. The five other\npfkey_broadcast() callers in af_key.c already pass xs_net(x),\nsock_net(sk) or a per-netns net, so this only removes the\n&init_net outlier.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L","score":7.3},"cwes":["CWE-862"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/00f2c451e57df50b1151d9b2254878f106b7c892","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/26ce8dbf2e23fe4fcc3351d19ef6d3fb703ed126","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/448bb92ca101dde8a6e88b4dc824044b4e341604","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6df8157547347b5257bf640a0ae3dfc4411e06cd","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7e2a4f7ca0952820731ef7bdadfc9a9e9d3571b4"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:43:09.190223697+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-63914","score":0.00147,"percentile":0.03883,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
