{"id":"AZL-106167","summary":"CVE-2026-98303 affecting package kernel 6.6.157.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nipv4: icmp: reject RTN_UNREACHABLE input routes in icmp_route_lookup\n\nWhen the forward output route cannot be used in icmp_route_lookup(),\nit enters the \"reverse path\" and calls ip_route_input() on fl4_dec.daddr,\nthe original packet's source address.\n\nip_route_input() only returns an error for truly invalid packets. For\nunreachable addresses it will succeed and return an input route whose\ndst.output is set to ip_rt_bug(). The existing check only rejects\nRTN_LOCAL routes, so the RTN_UNREACHABLE route types can still be returned\nand later used for output, syzkaller triggering a WARN_ON_ONCE()\nin ip_rt_bug() as bellow:\n\n ------------[ cut here ]------------\n WARNING: net/ipv4/route.c:1273 at ip_rt_bug+0x14/0x20\n RIP: 0010:ip_rt_bug+0x14/0x20\n Call Trace:\n  ip_push_pending_frames+0xfa/0x100\n  __icmp_send+0x905/0xf10\n  ip_options_compile+0xc0/0xd0\n  ip_rcv_finish_core+0x321/0xae0\n  ip_rcv+0x1de/0x260\n  __netif_receive_skb_one_core+0x11a/0x130\n  netif_receive_skb+0x7b/0x260\n  tun_get_user+0x11bf/0x1c10\n ------------[ cut here ]------------\n\nReject input route that is RTN_UNREACHABLE to fix it.
