{"id":"AZL-106452","summary":"CVE-2026-98288 affecting package kernel 6.6.157.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: stmmac: fix TSO header length truncation\n\nstmmac_tso_xmit() stores the protocol header length returned by\nstmmac_tso_header_size() in a u8. stmmac_tso_valid_packet() admits\nheaders up to 1023 bytes, so a header longer than 255 bytes wraps modulo\n256 (486 becomes 230, 256 becomes 0).\n\nA TCP over IPv6 socket carrying a few hundred bytes of sticky\ndestination/hop-by-hop options makes skb_tcp_all_headers() exceed 255\nwhile staying below the 1023-byte limit, so such an skb reaches\nstmmac_tso_xmit().\n\nWiden proto_hdr_len to unsigned int, which is sufficient since the value\nis bounded by the hardware limit, and adjust the debug print specifier\naccordingly.","modified":"2026-10-07T14:17:08.230992181Z","published":"2026-10-06T09:18:19Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-98288"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-98288"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.157.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-106452.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
