CVE-2026-98317CVE-2026-98317
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
neighbour: Enforce min/max to NDTPA_INTERVAL_PROBE_TIME_MS.
NDTPA_INTERVAL_PROBE_TIME_MS sets .type and .min but misses
.validation_type, so no validation is applied:
# ynl --family rt-neigh --do setneightbl \
--json '{"name": "arp_cache", "parms": {"interval-probe-time-ms": 0}}'
# ynl --family rt-neigh --dump getneightbl --output-json | \
jq '.[] | select(.name == "arp_cache" and has("config"))
| .parms["interval-probe-time-ms"]'
0
Moreover, nla_get_msecs() uses msecs_to_jiffies(), and u64 is
silently cast to u32, so a larger value can bypass the min check:
e.g. 4294967296 == 0x100000000
# ynl --family rt-neigh --do setneightbl \
--json '{"name": "arp_cache", "parms": {"interval-probe-time-ms": 4294967296}}'
# ynl --family rt-neigh --dump getneightbl --output-json | \
jq '.[] | select(.name == "arp_cache" and has("config"))
| .parms["interval-probe-time-ms"]'
0
