Vulnerability description
DayBreach CVE AI Research
CVE-2026-90071 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/sched: sch_teql: restore skb->dev on the slave failure path teql_master_xmit() sets skb->dev = slave before calling the slave's ndo_start_xmit(), but never restores it when that transmit fails. The skb then walks on to the next slave still pointing at the previous one. If a later slave has no resolved neighbour, teql_resolve() hands the skb to neigh_event_send(), which queues it on that neighbour's arp_queue with the stale skb->dev. skb->dev holds no reference, so deleting the previous slave frees the net_device while the skb is still queued. Whatever runs next on that skb - arp_error_report() on timeout, or neigh_direct_output() -> dev_queue_xmit() once the neighbour resolves - causes a UAF like the one below: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __icmp_send (net/ipv4/icmp.c:914 (discriminator 2)) Read of size 4 at addr ffff888106e100b0 by task flood_packet/527 CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 527 Comm: flood_packet Not tainted 7.2.0-rc6-g594d90519502 #1 PREEMPT(lazy) Hardware name: QEMU Ubuntu 24.04 PC v2 (i440FX + PIIX, arch_caps fix, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014 Call Trace: <IRQ> dump_stack_lvl (lib/dump_stack.c:94 lib/dump_stack.c:120) print_report (mm/kasan/report.c:378 mm/kasan/report.c:482) ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave (./include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h:122 (discriminator 4)) ? __icmp_send (net/ipv4/icmp.c:914 (discriminator 2)) kasan_report (mm/kasan/report.c:595) ? __icmp_send (net/ipv4/icmp.c:914 (discriminator 2)) __icmp_send (net/ipv4/icmp.c:914 (discriminator 2)) [...] ipv4_link_failure (net/ipv4/route.c:1251 net/ipv4/route.c:1258) ? __pfx_ipv4_link_failure (./include/linux/skbuff.h:4327) ? _raw_write_lock (./include/linux/instrumented.h:55 ./include/linux/atomic/atomic-instrumented.h:1301 ./include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h:98 ./include/linux/rwlock_api_smp.h:230 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:304) ? __pfx__raw_write_lock (kernel/locking/spinlock.c:175) arp_error_report (./include/net/dst.h:438 net/ipv4/arp.c:296) neigh_invalidate (net/core/neighbour.c:1077) neigh_timer_handler (net/core/neighbour.c:1169) [...] Allocated by task 505: kasan_save_stack (mm/kasan/common.c:57) kasan_save_track (mm/kasan/common.c:78) __kasan_kmalloc (mm/kasan/common.c:398 mm/kasan/common.c:415) __kvmalloc_node_noprof (./include/linux/kasan.h:263 mm/slub.c:5334 mm/slub.c:6905) alloc_netdev_mqs (net/core/dev.c:12055 (discriminator 2)) rtnl_create_link (net/core/rtnetlink.c:3721) rtnl_newlink (net/core/rtnetlink.c:3903 net/core/rtnetlink.c:4044 net/core/rtnetlink.c:4159) rtnetlink_rcv_msg (net/core/rtnetlink.c:7076) [...] Freed by task 536: kasan_save_stack (mm/kasan/common.c:57) kasan_save_track (mm/kasan/common.c:78) kasan_save_free_info (mm/kasan/generic.c:584) __kasan_slab_free (mm/kasan/common.c:253 mm/kasan/common.c:285) kfree (./include/linux/kasan.h:235 mm/slub.c:2677 mm/slub.c:6377 mm/slub.c:6692) device_release (drivers/base/core.c:2636) kobject_put (lib/kobject.c:689 lib/kobject.c:720 ./include/linux/kref.h:65 lib/kobject.c:737) netdev_run_todo (net/core/dev.c:11756) rtnl_dellink (net/core/rtnetlink.c:157 ./include/linux/rtnetlink.h:135 net/core/rtnetlink.c:3651) rtnetlink_rcv_msg (net/core/rtnetlink.c:7076) [...] Fix this by restoring skb->dev to the master at the end of each slave's iteration.
