Quick assessment

Affected
Linux Linux
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Linux kernel是美国Linux基金会开源的一个操作系统内核。 Linux kernel 6.16版本存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于fib6_check_nh_list()和__nexthop_replace_notify()遍历nh->f6i_list时未持有nh->lock，导致与并发路由删除操作竞争，可能造成释放后重用。

Vulnerability Title
nexthop: take nh->lock for f6i_list walks in replace check and notify
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nexthop: take nh->lock for f6i_list walks in replace check and notify fib6_check_nh_list() and __nexthop_replace_notify() walk nh->f6i_list during an RTNL-serialized nexthop replace without holding nh->lock. IPv6 RTM_NEWROUTE/RTM_DELROUTE run without RTNL and mutate that list under nh->lock (fib6_add_rt2node_nh(), fib6_purge_rt()), so both walks race a concurrent route delete that unlinks and frees a fib6_info: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in rt6_fill_node.isra.0 (net/ipv6/route.c:5799) Read of size 4 at addr ffff888014607e64 by task exploit/143 rt6_fill_node.isra.0 (net/ipv6/route.c:5799) fib6_rt_update (net/ipv6/route.c:6412) __nexthop_replace_notify (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:2542) rtm_new_nexthop (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:2554) rtnetlink_rcv_msg (net/core/rtnetlink.c:7076) BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in fib6_check_nh_list (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:1605) Read of size 8 at addr ffff888014a7d068 by task exploit/142 fib6_check_nh_list (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:1605) rtm_new_nexthop (net/ipv4/nexthop.c:2575) rtnetlink_rcv_msg (net/core/rtnetlink.c:7076) Both walks only read the entries and take no tb6_lock, so protect them with nh->lock; fib6_rt_update() uses gfp_any(), which returns GFP_ATOMIC under the lock.
