CVE-2026-43481 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Centos security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Centos:10.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-debug-core package and not the kernel-debug-core package as distributed by Centos.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net-shapers: don't free reply skb after genlmsg_reply()
genlmsg_reply() hands the reply skb to netlink, and netlink_unicast() consumes it on all return paths, whether the skb is queued successfully or freed on an error path.
net_shaper_nl_get_doit() and net_shaper_nl_cap_get_doit() currently jump to free_msg after genlmsg_reply() fails and call nlmsg_free(msg), which can hit the same skb twice.
Return the genlmsg_reply() error directly and keep free_msg only for pre-reply failures.
