It will lead to\nNULL derefence of net->ipv6.devconf_all in ip6_pol_route().\n\n BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000000c\n [...]\n Workqueue: bond0 bond_arp_monitor [bonding]\n RIP: 0010:ip6_pol_route+0x69/0x480\n [...]\n Call Trace:\n  <TASK>\n  ? srso_return_thunk+0x5/0x5f\n  ? __pfx_ip6_pol_route_output+0x10/0x10\n  fib6_rule_lookup+0xfe/0x260\n  ? wakeup_preempt+0x8a/0x90\n  ? srso_return_thunk+0x5/0x5f\n  ? srso_return_thunk+0x5/0x5f\n  ? sched_balance_rq+0x369/0x810\n  ip6_route_output_flags+0xd7/0x170\n  bond_ns_send_all+0xde/0x280 [bonding]\n  bond_ab_arp_probe+0x296/0x320 [bonding]\n  ? srso_return_thunk+0x5/0x5f\n  bond_activebackup_arp_mon+0xb4/0x2c0 [bonding]\n  process_one_work+0x196/0x370\n  worker_thread+0x1af/0x320\n  ? srso_return_thunk+0x5/0x5f\n  ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10\n  kthread+0xe3/0x120\n  ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n  ret_from_fork+0x199/0x260\n  ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n  ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n  </TASK>\n\nFix this by adding ipv6_mod_enabled() condition check in the caller.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1c975de3343cdef506f2eecc833cc1f14b0401c4","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2a4bad24ac5296b262ad821aa5e08bb265e6b154","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/451c2d5422a309393aa8ae161fc1a527c2f19ab2","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/690ce66782778e8c4b1fdd79c0b0890a100e9522","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/738039ad21e20ca2c5bbde2f5a4f5ad5fb718038"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:47:54.990491175+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-68336","score":0.0018,"percentile":0.07601,"date":"2026-11-01"},"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).
