CVE-2026-68127

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ila: reload IPv6 header after pskb_may_pull in checksum adjust

ila_csum_adjust_transport() caches ip6h = ipv6_hdr(skb) before calling
pskb_may_pull(). On a non-linear skb whose transport header sits in a page
fragment, pskb_may_pull() can call __pskb_pull_tail() / pskb_expand_head()
and free the old skb head, leaving ip6h dangling; the following
get_csum_diff(ip6h, p) then reads freed memory. ila_update_ipv6_locator()
uses ip6h (and the iaddr derived from it) again after the csum-adjust
call and additionally writes the new locator through that pointer.

Impact: a remote IPv6 packet routed through a configured ILA
csum-adjust-transport route or receive-side mapping triggers a
slab-use-after-free in ila_update_ipv6_locator() (KASAN). The route or
mapping requires CAP_NET_ADMIN to configure, but trigger packets are
unauthenticated once it exists.

Reload ip6h after each pskb_may_pull() in ila_csum_adjust_transport()
before the csum-diff read. In ila_update_ipv6_locator() only the
ILA_CSUM_ADJUST_TRANSPORT case pulls the skb, so reload ip6h and iaddr in
that case alone before the destination-address write; the neutral-map
modes never pull and keep their cached pointers.
