NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-default-livepatch-devel package and not the kernel-default-livepatch-devel package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: exthdrs: refresh nh after handling HAO option

ip6_parse_tlv() caches skb_network_header(skb) in nh while walking IPv6 TLVs.

ipv6_dest_hao() may call pskb_expand_head() for a cloned skb, which can move the skb head and invalidate the cached network header pointer. Refresh nh after ipv6_dest_hao() returns so any trailing padding or TLVs are parsed from the current skb head.

This matches the existing pattern used in ip6_parse_tlv() after helpers that can modify skb header storage.
