{"id":"AZL-90282","summary":"CVE-2026-52916 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.143.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbatman-adv: frag: disallow unicast fragment in fragment\n\nbatadv_frag_skb_buffer() is called by batadv_batman_skb_recv() when a\nBATADV_UNICAST_FRAG packet is received. Once all fragments are collected\nand the packet is reassembled, batadv_recv_frag_packet() calls\nbatadv_batman_skb_recv() again to process the defragmented payload.\n\nA malicious sender can craft a BATADV_UNICAST_FRAG packet whose reassembled\npayload is itself a BATADV_UNICAST_FRAG packet (matryoshka-style nesting).\nEach nesting level recurses through batadv_batman_skb_recv() without bound,\ngrowing the kernel stack until it is exhausted.\n\nSince refragmentation or fragments in fragments are not actually allowed,\ndiscard all packets which are still BATADV_UNICAST_FRAG packets after the\ndefragmentation process.","modified":"2026-08-28T17:48:06.101674881Z","published":"2026-06-24T08:16:21Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-52916"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-52916"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.143.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-90282.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
