      <title>CVE-2026-98009 — net/sched: ets: clamp quantum in parse and fallback paths</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-98009</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;net/sched: ets: clamp quantum in parse and fallback paths&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ets_qdisc_change() falls back to psched_mtu() with no floor for bands
without an explicit quantum. With a crafted size table qdisc_pkt_len
reaches ~2 GiB, so a zero psched_mtu on a headerless device makes the
deficit-refill loop spin under the qdisc lock.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Move the floor into ets_quantum_parse() so explicitly configured quanta
are also clamped to [256, 1&amp;lt;&amp;lt;20], not just the fallback path.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Conditions to recreate the bug:
  CONFIG_NET_SCH_ETS=y. Requires CAP_NET_ADMIN (namespace-local via
  unshare -Urn suffices).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;tc qdisc add dev dummy0 root ets bands 3 strict 2 quanta 1 1&lt;/p&gt;</description>
