Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper control of a resource through its lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53266) Exploited

CWE-ID: CWE-664 - Improper control of a resource through its lifetime

CVSSv4: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper memory handling in the ebtables SNAT target ARP sender hardware address rewrite in net/bridge/netfilter/ebt_snat.c when processing ARP packets in bridge netfilter hooks. A local user can trigger ARP sender hardware address rewriting on a crafted nonlinear skb to cause a denial of service.

Exploitation requires the ARP sender hardware address rewrite path to be reached with a nonlinear skb fragment backed by a splice-imported file page.
