CVE-2026-93250CVE-2026-93250
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: mdb: Fix use-after-free in vxlan_mdb_flush()
vxlan_mdb_flush() iterates over the MDB entries using
hlist_for_each_entry_safe(), which only tolerates the removal of the
current entry. Contrary to the comment above the loop, the removal of an
entry can trigger the removal of another entry.
Flushing the remotes of a (*, G) entry also removes the (S, G) entries
that were created for its source list, once they are left without
remotes:
vxlan_mdb_remotes_flush()
-> vxlan_mdb_remote_del()
-> vxlan_mdb_remote_srcs_del()
-> vxlan_mdb_remote_src_del()
-> vxlan_mdb_remote_src_fwd_del()
-> __vxlan_mdb_del()
-> vxlan_mdb_entry_put()
Such an entry can be located after the (*, G) entry in the list, as
vxlan_mdb_entry_get() returns an existing entry without moving it to the
head of the list. This order is obtained by adding the (S, G) entry
before the (*, G) entry, the latter wi
