{"cve":"CVE-2026-68127","nvd":{"published":"2026-08-10T13:19:57.940","modified":"2026-10-19T21:17:52.650","status":"Received","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nila: reload IPv6 header after pskb_may_pull in checksum adjust\n\nila_csum_adjust_transport() caches ip6h = ipv6_hdr(skb) before calling\npskb_may_pull(). On a non-linear skb whose transport header sits in a page\nfragment, pskb_may_pull() can call __pskb_pull_tail() / pskb_expand_head()\nand free the old skb head, leaving ip6h dangling; the following\nget_csum_diff(ip6h, p) then reads freed memory. ila_update_ipv6_locator()\nuses ip6h (and the iaddr derived from it) again after the csum-adjust\ncall and additionally writes the new locator through that pointer.\n\nImpact: a remote IPv6 packet routed through a configured ILA\ncsum-adjust-transport route or receive-side mapping triggers a\nslab-use-after-free in ila_update_ipv6_locator() (KASAN). The route or\nmapping requires CAP_NET_ADMIN to configure, but trigger packets are\nunauthenticated once it exists.\n\nReload ip6h after each pskb_may_pull() in ila_csum_adjust_transport()\nbefore the csum-diff read. In ila_update_ipv6_locator() only the\nILA_CSUM_ADJUST_TRANSPORT case pulls the skb, so reload ip6h and iaddr in\nthat case alone before the destination-address write; the neutral-map\nmodes never pull and keep their cached pointers.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":9.8},"cwes":["CWE-416"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1eadcb43893b897ade85ac5bf5c618054bc3c655","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/472aba2603ca74c4f7722cb0c0296942b0776b8d","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7097a0280b178237265681be66d1bef11d15894b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/896a9512d0d83c2a4b357e5585b7b62a8e3f95c1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/92d3817649df2b0b6a008a686c8275c88d7ef594"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:56:58.798400159+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-68127","score":0.00536,"percentile":0.44926,"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).
