UBUNTU-CVE-2026-74474: Medium severity ubuntu/linux vulnerability

Published Aug 15, 2026

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vxlan: use pskbnetworkmaypull() for transmit path header pulls In vxlanxmit(), arpreduce(), and vxlanmdbentryskbget(), pskbmaypull() was being called to verify the availability of network layer headers (ARP, IPv6/ND, IP/IPv6 MDB keys). However, during transmit skb->data points to the MAC header, so skbnetworkoffset(skb) is ETHHLEN (14 bytes). Using pskbmaypull(skb, len) only checks len bytes from skb->data rather than skbnetworkoffset(skb) + len, which can leave part of the network header in non-linear frags. Replace these remaining pskbmaypull() calls with pskbnetworkmaypull() to properly account for the MAC header offset.
