LIN1025-14611 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2026-43036

Created: May 12, 2026    Updated: May 14, 2026
Found In Version: 10.25.33.2
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 25
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  net: use skb_header_pointer() for TCPv4 GSO frag_off check  Syzbot reported a KMSAN uninit-value warning in gso_features_check() called from netif_skb_features() [1].  gso_features_check() reads iph->frag_off to decide whether to clear mangleid_features. Accessing the IPv4 header via ip_hdr()/inner_ip_hdr() can rely on skb header offsets that are not always safe for direct dereference on packets injected from PF_PACKET paths.  Use skb_header_pointer() for the TCPv4 frag_off check so the header read is robust whether data is already linear or needs copying.  [1] https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=1543a7d954d9c6d00407
