      <title>CVE-2026-89950 — batman-adv: mcast: linearize skbuff for packet generation</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-89950</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;batman-adv: mcast: linearize skbuff for packet generation&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;batadv_mcast_forw_packet() and batadv_mcast_forw_scrape() is not only
called (indirectly) by the unsharing+linearizing batadv_recv_mcast_packet()
handler. When it is called (indirectly) by batadv_mcast_forw_mcsend() then
it will be unshared but not linearized. The SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT() can
therefore cause a fatal BUG().&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The linearization should happen during the expansion of the head because
the scrape function can be hit already during the initial
batadv_mcast_forw_mode() selection code:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;* batadv_interface_tx
* batadv_mcast_forw_mode
* batadv_mcast_forw_mode_by_count()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push()
  -&amp;gt; calls batadv_mcast_forw_expand_head() before everything else
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_tvlvs()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_dests()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_adjust_padding()
* batadv_mcast_forw_scrape()&lt;/p&gt;</description>
