kernel: net: sched: act_csum: validate nested VLAN headers

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's network scheduler component. A remote attacker could send specially crafted network packets containing nested Virtual Local Area Network VLAN headers. This could cause the kernel to read beyond allocated memory, leading to a system crash and a denial of...

CVE-2026-31684

The CVE-2026-31684 issue is in the Linux kernel’s net/sched pathology (act_csum) where tcf_csum_act() reads nested VLAN headers directly from skb->data if the payload contains VLAN tags, and may read VLAN_HLEN bytes before guaranteeing the full header is present. The root cause is that the cod...

Linux kernel 安全漏洞

The Linux kernel is the core of the open-source operating system Linux, developed by the Linux Foundation in the United States. There is a security vulnerability in the Linux kernel, which stems from the nested VLAN headers in actcsum not being linearly present. This vulnerability may lead to the...
