kernel: net/sched: act_pedit: extend the writable skb range per key

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's traffic control packet editing pedit subsystem. In tcfpeditact, the copy-on-write COW range for skbensurewritable is computed once before iterating over edit keys, but the calculation does not account for runtime header offsets added by typed keys. This can...

CVE-2026-46331 net/sched: fix pedit partial COW leading to page cache corruption

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: fix pedit partial COW leading to page cache corruption tcfpeditact computes the COW range for skbensurewritable once before the key loop using tcfpoffmaxhint, but the hint does not account for the runtime header offset...
