CVE-2026-68398

CVE-2026-68398 is a Linux kernel UAF in PPPoL2TP: pppol2tp_recv() can dereference a freed internal PPP channel when a bound-but-unattached channel is closed, leading to potential local escalation. The fix defers freeing the channel to an RCU callback (call_rcu) to ensure a grace period for in-fli...

CVE-2026-68121

Summary of CVE-2026-68121 (Linux kernel, PPPoE): A vulnerability arises when device header callbacks reallocate the skb head after PPPoE header is referenced, causing a stale pointer to the PPPoE header used by pppoe_sendmsg(). This can occur if a send is blocked in copy_from_user() while a non-E...
