      <title>CVE-2026-43481 — net-shapers: don't free reply skb after genlmsg_reply()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-43481</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;net-shapers: don&amp;#39;t free reply skb after genlmsg_reply()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;genlmsg_reply() hands the reply skb to netlink, and
netlink_unicast() consumes it on all return paths, whether the
skb is queued successfully or freed on an error path.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;net_shaper_nl_get_doit() and net_shaper_nl_cap_get_doit()
currently jump to free_msg after genlmsg_reply() fails and call
nlmsg_free(msg), which can hit the same skb twice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Return the genlmsg_reply() error directly and keep free_msg
only for pre-reply failures.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
