CVE-2026-99211

Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netlink: reset skb headers before unicast and multicast filtering Socket filters can use SKF_NET_OFF and SKF_LL_OFF to read relative to an skb's network and MAC headers. Netlink producers may reserve headroom without resetting those headers, allowing a receiving socket's filter to read data before the initialized message. For example, IWPM HELLO replies are allocated with dev_alloc_skb(), which reserves NET_SKB_PAD bytes. An unprivileged NETLINK_RDMA user can attach a classic socket filter and disclose this headroom through the length of the delivered reply. The resets in netlink_dump() do not help because IWPM sends a separately allocated skb through netlink_unicast(). Reset both headers before running the receiver's filter in unicast and broadcast delivery, as is already done for dump skbs. This also covers other netlink producers that reserve headroom without changing their allocation or message-building code.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netlink subsystem. This vulnerability allows an unprivileged local attacker to read uninitialized kernel memory, resulting in information disclosure. The issue occurs because socket buffer headers are not properly reset before applying socket filters during unicast and multicast message delivery, enabling a filter to inspect data from the buffer's reserved headroom.
