CVE-2026-10640 Use-after-free reading `net_pkt` `iface` after send in IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (`ipv6_nbr.c`)

Zephyr's IPv6 Neighbor Discovery send paths netipv6sendna, netipv6sendns, netipv6sendrs in subsys/net/ip/ipv6nbr.c updated the per-interface ICMP-sent statistics by calling netpktifacepkt after netsenddatapkt had already returned successfully. On the success path the network stack owns and releas...

CVE-2026-10638 Use-after-free in Zephyr ICMPv6 RX path when updating statistics after sending an echo reply or error

subsys/net/ip/icmpv6.c reads the network interface from a netpkt after that packet has been handed to nettrysenddata. In icmpv6handleechorequest and neticmpv6senderror, the post-send statistics update calls netpktifacereply/netpktifacepkt on the just-sent packet. The send path nettrysenddata -...

PT-2026-5379

A flaw in Zephyr’s network stack allows an IPv4 packet containing ICMP type 128 to be misclassified as an ICMPv6 Echo Request. This results in an out-of-bounds memory read and creates a potential information-leak vulnerability in the networking subsystem...
