      <title>CVE-2026-72348 — netfilter: ip6tables: mark malformed IPv6 extension headers for hotdrop</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-72348</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;netfilter: ip6tables: mark malformed IPv6 extension headers for hotdrop&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ah, hbh and rt matches check that the fixed extension header is
present, then use the header length field to derive the advertised
extension header length for matching.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the ah match, add the missing advertised-length check. For hbh
and rt, update the existing advertised-length checks. In all three
cases, set hotdrop to true before returning false when the advertised
extension header length exceeds the available skb data.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Returning false treats the packet as a rule mismatch. Set hotdrop to
true and drop malformed packets so they cannot bypass rules intended
to drop packets with these IPv6 extension headers.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
