The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in ip6t_eui64 when processing packets with an invalid MAC header. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to cause a denial of service.

13) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43037)

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to a stack-based buffer overflow in ip4ip6_err() and __ip_options_echo() when processing a crafted packet that triggers ICMP error handling on a cloned skb. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to execute arbitrary code.

The issue is caused by reusing skb cb[] data written by the IPv6 receive path as IPv4 metadata, allowing attacker-controlled packet data to influence the copied option length.

14) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43038)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach() when processing a forged ICMPv4 error containing a CIPSO IP option and an attacker-controlled inner IPv6 packet. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted ICMP error packet to cause a denial of service.

The issue arises because IPv4 control buffer data is reused as IPv6 control buffer data in a cloned skb, which can lead to a forged home address option offset being used during IPv6 TLV parsing.

15) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43110)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in brcmf_fweh_handle_if_event() when handling firmware-provided IF events. A remote attacker can supply a crafted bsscfg index to cause a denial of service.

16) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43190)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear

The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information.
