Vulnerability description

DayBreach CVE AI Research

CVE-2026-80995 has vendor, distribution, patch and security-source records on file. We can compare them and prepare an explanation linked to the evidence.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mctp: hold a reference to the route device in mctp_route_lookup() mctp_route_lookup() uses rt->dev without holding a reference on it. mctp_route_lookup_single() returns the route under RCU only, so the route's device can be torn down concurrently: mctp_dev_put() drops the last reference and synchronously kfree()s mdev->addrs. mctp_dev_saddr() then reads rt->dev->addrs[0], giving a use-after-free reachable by an unprivileged local AF_MCTP user on the receive/forwarding path (no CAP_NET_RAW required): BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in mctp_route_lookup Read of size 1 at addr ... by task mctp_uaf/... mctp_route_lookup mctp_pkttype_receive Freed by task ...: kfree mctp_dev_put mctp_dev_notify In the same window mctp_dst_from_route() -> mctp_dev_hold() also increments a refcount that has already reached zero ("refcount_t: addition on 0 ... mctp_dev_hold"). This reintroduces the use-after-free class of CVE-2023-3439: the source address lookup was moved ahead of the point where the destination takes its device reference. Take a reference with refcount_inc_not_zero() before touching rt->dev, skip a device that is already dead, and drop the reference once the destination has taken its own.
