CVE-2026-72392

EUVD-2026-59291
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: fib6: fix NULL deref in fib6_walk_continue() on multi-batch dump

inet6_dump_fib() saves its progress in cb->args[1] as a positional
index within the current hash chain.  Between batches, a concurrent
fib6_new_table() can insert a new table at the chain head, shifting
all existing entries.  The saved index then lands on a different
table, causing fib6_dump_table() to set w->root to the wrong table
while w->node still points into the previous one.
fib6_walk_continue() dereferences w->node->parent (NULL) and panics:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
  RIP: 0010:fib6_walk_continue+0x6e/0x170
  Call Trace:
   <TASK>
   fib6_dump_table.isra.0+0xc5/0x240

   ____sys_recvmsg+0x17a/0x190

Fix by storing tb->tb6_id in cb->args[1] instead of a positional
index.  On resume, skip entries until the id matches; a concurrent
head-insert can never match the saved id, so the walker always
resumes on the correct table.
