As a result, the\ndestination skb keeps a reference to the same externally-owned or\npage-cache-backed pages while reporting skb_has_shared_frag() as\nfalse.\n\nThe mismatch is harmful in any in-place writer that uses\nskb_has_shared_frag() to decide whether shared pages must be detoured\nthrough skb_cow_data(). ESP input is one such writer (esp4.c,\nesp6.c), and a single nft 'dup to ' rule -- or any other\nnf_dup_ipv4() / xt_TEE caller -- is enough to land a pskb_copy()'d\nskb in esp_input() with the marker stripped, letting an unprivileged\nuser write into the page cache of a root-owned read-only file via\nauthencesn-ESN stray writes.\n\nSet SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG on the destination whenever frag descriptors\nwere actually moved from the source. skb_copy() and skb_copy_expand()\nshare skb_copy_header() too but linearize all paged data into freshly\nallocated head storage and emerge with nr_frags == 0, so\nskb_has_shared_frag() returns false on its own; they need no change.\n\nThe same omission exists in skb_gro_receive() and skb_gro_receive_list().\nThe former moves the incoming skb's frag descriptors into the\naccumulator's last sub-skb via two paths (a direct frag-move loop and\nthe head_frag + memcpy path); the latter chains the incoming skb whole\nonto p's frag_list. Downstream skb_segment() reads only\nskb_shinfo(p)->flags, and skb_segment_list() reuses each sub-skb's\nshinfo as the nskb -- both p and lp must carry the marker.\n\nThe same omission also exists in tcp_clone_payload(), which builds an\nMTU probe skb by moving frag descriptors from skbs on sk_write_queue\ninto a freshly allocated nskb. The helper falls into the same family\nand warrants the same fix for consistency; no TCP TX-side in-place\nwriter is currently known to reach a user page through this gap, but\na future consumer depending on the marker would regress silently.\n\nThe same omission exists in skb_segment(): the per-iteration flag\nmerge takes only head_skb's flag, and the inner switch that rebinds\nfrag_skb to list_skb on head_skb-frags exhaustion does not fold the\nnew frag_skb's flag into nskb. Fold frag_skb's flag at both sites\nso segments drawing frags from frag_list members carry the marker." } ], "metrics": [ { "cvssV3_1": { "version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H", "baseScore": 8.8, "baseSeverity": "HIGH" }, "scenarios": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "AV:L - Triggering the impact requires locally splicing a root-owned file's page-cache pages into a socket and configuring an xfrm SA plus an nftables `dup`/TEE rule; a purely remote peer cannot create externally-owned, page-cache-backed frags. Matches the predecessor CVE-2026-43284 (AV:L).\nAC:L - The attacker controls every condition — the SA key, the dup/TEE rule, the spliced file pages, and the crafted ESP packet — and can reliably reproduce the in-place decrypt with no race or layout dependency outside their control.\nPR:L - Requires only an unprivileged local user: CAP_NET_ADMIN for xfrm/nftables is obtainable via user namespaces (`unshare -Urn`), and only read access to a (e.g. world-readable) root-owned file is needed to splice its page-cache pages.\nUI:N - The attacker performs all steps; the page-cache corruption occurs at decrypt time with no action required from any victim.\nS:C - The vulnerable component (ESP/network packet processing acting on the attacker's own packet) modifies resources in a different security authority — the page cache of a root-owned read-only file — crossing a privilege boundary, as scored in the predecessor CVE-2026-43284 (S:C).\nC:H - The in-place AEAD operation reads and writes externally-owned/potentially-freed pages across a trust boundary, a memory-safety violation leverageable for information disclosure; scored C:H consistent with the predecessor.\nI:H - The decrypt writes attacker-influenced data into the page cache of a root-owned read-only file, corrupting content read by privileged processes — a powerful confused-deputy write primitive enabling privilege escalation.\nA:H - Writing into pages the skb does not own (page-cache or freed/reused spliced pages) is memory corruption that can crash or destabilize the kernel and corrupt file/system
