CVE-2026-93226CVE-2026-93226
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: use RCU iterator to dump route exceptions
rt6_nh_dump_exceptions() uses hlist_for_each_entry() to iterate over
RCU-protected exception lists. The caller holds rcu_read_lock(), but does
not hold rt6_exception_lock, so rt6_insert_exception() can concurrently
add an entry with hlist_add_head_rcu().
KCSAN reports this race (irrelevant details omitted):
