Linux Kernel: Bonding Software Allows Uncontrolled Data Access

CVE-2026-23119
Summary

A bug in the Linux kernel's bonding software allows a malicious program to potentially access sensitive data. This issue has been fixed. To stay secure, ensure your Linux system is updated with the latest patches.

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

bonding: provide a net pointer to __skb_flow_dissect()

After 3cbf4ffba5ee ("net: plumb network namespace into __skb_flow_dissect")
we have to provide a net pointer to __skb_flow_dissect(),
either via skb->dev, skb->sk, or a user provided pointer.

In the following case, syzbot was able to cook a bare skb.
