CVE-2026-64121CVE-2026-64121

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ifb: report ethtool stats over num_tx_queues ifb_dev_init() allocates dp->tx_private to dev->num_tx_queues entries via kzalloc_objs(*txp, dev->num_tx_queues). Both IFB per-queue RX and TX stats live in those entries: ifb_xmit() updates txp->rx_stats using the skb queue mapping, ifb_ri_tasklet() updates txp->tx_stats, and ifb_stats64() aggregates both over dev->num_tx_queues. The ethtool stats callbacks instead size and walk the per-queue stats with dev->real_num_rx_queues and dev->real_num_tx_queues. With an asymmetric device where the RX queue count exceeds the TX queue count, for example: ip link add name ifb10 numtxqueues 1 numrxqueues 8 type ifb ethtool -S ifb10 ifb_get_ethtool_stats() indexes past the tx_private allocation and copies adjacent slab data through ETHTOOL_GSTATS. Use dev->num_tx_queues consistently for the stats strings, the stats count, and the stats data walks. This reports one RX
