{"id":"AZL-99411","summary":"CVE-2026-80844 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nxfrm: ah6: validate routing header segments_left\n\nAH6 rearranges routing-header addresses before computing or verifying the\nICV. ipv6_rearrange_rthdr() assumes that segments_left is not larger than\nthe number of addresses described by the routing header's hdrlen field.\n\nThat assumption does not hold for raw IPv6 HDRINCL packets. A packet with\nhdrlen equal to 2 describes one address, but can carry an arbitrary\nsegments_left value. With segments_left equal to 255, the function moves\nits address pointer 4,064 bytes backwards and passes a 4,064-byte length to\nmemmove(), resulting in an out-of-bounds access.\n\nValidate the invariant locally before modifying the routing header or\nperforming any address-pointer arithmetic, and propagate malformed-header\nerrors to the existing AH6 input and output error paths.","modified":"2026-09-06T05:31:44Z","published":"2026-09-04T16:18:13Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-80844"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-80844"}],"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-99411.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
