      <title>CVE-2026-89564 — ip: orphan prefetched skbs before multicast forwarding</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-89564</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ip: orphan prefetched skbs before multicast forwarding&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;IPv4 and IPv6 input preserve an skb-&amp;gt;sk association installed by
bpf_sk_assign() so that local delivery can use the selected socket under
RCU. Both address families can also prefetch a socket in UDP early demux.
In both paths (BPF and UDP early demux) a reference is not guaranteed to
be held on the socket.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When a multicast packet is not locally deliverable, IPv6 hands the
original skb to ip6_mr_input(). IPv4&amp;#39;s ip_mr_input() similarly keeps the
original skb when local delivery is not needed. Either path can put the
skb on an unresolved multicast route queue or forward it after the
receive-side RCU section ends.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the prefetched socket is destroyed, a later skb free invokes
sock_pfree() and dereferences the stale skb-&amp;gt;sk. Orphan the skb before
each non-local multicast forwarding path. Local delivery retains the
original skb; the existing skb_clone() calls provide multicast forwarding
with a socket-free clone.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
