This leaks\nthe newly allocated nskb, reads from the freed skb via LLC_I_GET_NR(pdu),\nand double-frees skb when llc_conn_state_process() drops its reference.\n\nIn llc_sap_action_send_xid_r() and llc_sap_action_send_test_r(), nskb is\nleaked if llc_mac_hdr_init() returns an error.\n\nFree nskb in all three error paths.","modified":"2026-10-20T05:35:13Z","published":"2026-10-18T16:17:07Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-98555"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-98555"}],"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-109395.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
