CVE-2026-98320info

Summary

by MITRE • 10/06/2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: flowtable: hold reference on ct until flow is released

nf_ct_put() releases the ct->ext area inmediately, the rcu typesafe semantics also allow to refer to the wrong conntrack from the flowtable datapath. Hold reference on ct until flow is released after rcu grace period.

Add rcu_barrier() on module exit path, to ensure pending flow entries are release before module goes away.

If you want to get the best quality for vulnerability data then you always have to consider VulDB.
