{"id":"AZL-100274","summary":"CVE-2026-80977 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: skbuff: don't touch shared zerocopy state in skb_tx_error()\n\nskb_tx_error() completes the zerocopy uarg and clears\nSKBFL_ALL_ZEROCOPY, and skb_zcopy_downgrade_managed() clears\nSKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS. Both live in skb_shinfo(), which every clone\nshares, while the caller only owns the reference it is about to drop.\nThrough a clone it tells the producer its pages are free and drops\nSKBFL_SHARED_FRAG for an skb that is still in flight.\n\nOpen vSwitch reaches this with a non-last OVS_ACTION_ATTR_RECIRC:\nclone_execute() sends a skb_clone() into ovs_dp_process_packet() while\ndo_execute_actions() keeps forwarding the original, and skb_clone()\ndoes not privatise the frags here -- skb_orphan_frags() returns early\non SKBFL_DONT_ORPHAN. A flow miss on the clone then strips the marker\nfrom the packet still being forwarded, and a later local ESP delivery\ndecrypts in place over frags it does not own privately.\n\nSkip it for a cloned skb. Nothing is lost: skb_release_data() clears\nthe zerocopy state once the last reference to the shared data goes.","modified":"2026-09-13T06:06:36Z","published":"2026-09-11T20:19:04Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-80977"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-80977"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-100274.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
