Sashiko pointed at a pre-existing bug that exposed the change-sideinput-validation gap open.\nem_text_change() casts the raw netlink attribute payload to structtcf_em_text and passes conf->algo, a 16-byte array with no enforced NULterminator, to textsearch_prepare().  On the TS_AUTOLOAD retrytextsearch_prepare() calls request_module(\"ts_%s\", algo); vsnprintf()walks %s until it finds a NUL, so an algo[] with no NUL reads past thearray into the adjacent struct fields and payload and feeds those bytesto the usermode helper command line.  This is an out-of-bounds read anda kernel memory disclosure.\nReject the attribute when no NUL exists within TC_EM_TEXT_ALGOSIZ bytes,matching the check xt_string has had since 3ab720881b6e.\nConditions to recreate the bug:- CAP_NET_ADMIN on the target netns (namespace-local via unshare -Urn  is enough)- install clsact on an interface, then add a basic filter with one text  ematch whose algo[] is 16 bytes with no NUL (e.g. \"A\"*16) and  pattern_len at least 1- the add fails with -ENOENT and the kernel invokes modprobe with a  module name made of \"ts_\" plus the 16 bytes and the adjacent payload\nhttps://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-98969https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/00bcc303000bac524d62eed054d77372b38ace0fhttps://git.kernel.org/stable/c/22182f91c6703af6e9832cffe6d22b381031cb5ahttps://git.kernel.org/stable/c/85e5512369d4fe6e5f2c43712d9f9e01d4ae8437https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b627c6ba20be20334338229b4820baacb9d96826https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c9728fcf2e7fb4a7a8d08ebd9524c3b02ae1a021#kernel
