CVE-2026-52916

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's batman-adv module. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending specially crafted BATADVUNICASTFRAG packets, which are designed to contain other fragmented packets. This 'fragments in fragments' scenario causes the kernel to recursively proces...

CVE-2026-52916

CVE-2026-52916 affects the Linux kernel’s BATMAN-adv frag handling. A crafted BATADV_UNICAST_FRAG packet can defragment into another BATADV_UNICAST_FRAG, causing unbounded recursion in batadv_batman_skb_recv() and leading to kernel stack exhaustion. The published description specifies that refrag...
