Title

vxlan: keep the last remote linked during FDB flush

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vxlan: keep the last remote linked during FDB flush A non-nexthop FDB entry is expected to have at least one remote while it remains reachable through the FDB hash table. A filtered bulk flush violates this invariant when every remote matches: It unlinks the last remote in vxlan_fdb_dst_destroy() and only afterwards tells vxlan_flush() to destroy the parent FDB entry. An RCU reader can find the parent during this interval. first_remote_rcu() then applies list_entry_rcu() to the empty list head, producing an invalid remote pointer that the receive learning path can read from and write to. When a matching remote is the sole remaining remote, leave it linked and ask the caller to destroy the entire FDB entry. vxlan_fdb_destroy() keeps the remote attached while sending the deletion notification and removing the parent from the lookup structures.

GHSA-9CFQ-2RJH-R5VR

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-04 18:31 – Updated: 2026-09-04 18:31

Details

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

vxlan: keep the last remote linked during FDB flush

A non-nexthop FDB entry is expected to have at least one remote while it remains reachable through the FDB hash table. A filtered bulk flush violates this invariant when every remote matches: It unlinks the last remote in vxlan_fdb_dst_destroy() and only afterwards tells vxlan_flush() to destroy the parent FDB entry.

An RCU reader can find the parent during this interval. first_remote_rcu() then applies list_entry_rcu() to the empty list head, producing an invalid remote pointer that the receive learning path can read from and write to.

When a matching remote is the sole remaining remote, leave it linked and ask the caller to destroy the entire FDB entry. vxlan_fdb_destroy() keeps the remote attached while sending the deletion notification and removing the parent from the lookup structures.
