{"id":"AZL-96213","summary":"CVE-2026-74496 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfou: Fix use-after-free in fou_create()\n\nfou_create() publishes struct fou through sk_user_data before adding the\nnew FOU port to the per-netns list.  If fou_add_to_port_list() fails,\nthe error path frees fou while it is still reachable through\nsk_user_data.  A concurrent receive can then dereference the freed\nobject in fou_from_sock().\n\nThis ordering issue was previously noted in the linked discussion.\n\nThe failure is reachable when local port 0 is requested.  Each socket\nbinds to a different ephemeral port, but fou_cfg_cmp() compares the\nrequested port 0 and reports -EALREADY once an entry already exists.\n\nRelease the tunnel socket before freeing fou so sk_user_data is cleared\nfirst, and defer reclamation with kfree_rcu() to protect concurrent RCU\nreaders.  This matches the lifetime handling in fou_release().","modified":"2026-09-04T05:27:10Z","published":"2026-08-15T13:17:54Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-74496"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-74496"}],"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-96213.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
