An skb\nthat is not cloned but still carries externally-owned paged fragments\n(e.g. SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG set by splice() into a UDP socket via\n__ip_append_data, or a chained skb_has_frag_list()) falls through to\nthe in-place decryption path, which binds the frag pages directly into\nthe AEAD/skcipher SGL via skb_to_sgvec().\n\nExtend the gate to also unshare when skb_has_frag_list() or\nskb_has_shared_frag() is true.  This catches the splice-loopback vector\nand other externally-shared frag sources while preserving the\nzero-copy fast path for skbs whose frags are kernel-private (e.g. NIC\npage_pool RX, GRO).  The OOM/trace handling already in place is reused.","dueDate":"","id":"CVE-2026-43500","kev_catalogs":["vulncheck"],"knownRansomwareCampaignUse":"Unknown","product":"Kernel","requiredAction":"Apply remediations or mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if remediation or mitigations are unavailable.","severity":"HIGH","source":"vulncheck_kev","title":"Linux Kernel Out-of-bounds Write","vendor":"Linux"}
