UTSA-2026-005484 advisory.

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

    vxlan: Fix nexthop hash size

    The nexthop code expects a 31 bit hash, such as what is returned by
    fib_multipath_hash() and rt6_multipath_hash(). Passing the 32 bit hash
    returned by skb_get_hash() can lead to problems related to the fact that
    'int hash' is a negative number when the MSB is set.

    In the case of hash threshold nexthop groups, nexthop_select_path_hthr()
    will disproportionately select the first nexthop group entry. In the case
    of resilient nexthop groups, nexthop_select_path_res() may do an out of
    bounds access in nh_buckets[], for example:
        hash = -912054133
        num_nh_buckets = 2
        bucket_index = 65535

    which leads to the following panic:
