The plain transportheader reset truncates that offset and triggers the skb warning path.\nUse the careful transport-header helper and drop the skb through theexisting XFRM error path when the offset cannot be represented.\nhttps://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-98417https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d37a5b87577c4b4c1a1dcb000a9dff1df2cf886bhttps://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6c29681207bc213188afa603dff2d55e7178a341https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4a8243fd2e21980fa3fd10c0610e9155057cebd3https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b2b84e73e0386ad0b4f9b8d3afde343e761f5275https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/327b2a457dd7d5445f7395f371f3c65de79bd5cehttps://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cce630c751279e974fa0bb574d80575e0cc7e8f3https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/206f396f46149dc8bc4dfd2b54b9879ba3ee1d7dhttps://git.kernel.org/stable/c/96f01b53c2d05e003b040892256de54a586e8529#kernel #Linux#CVE_2026_98417#bot", "creation_timestamp": "2026-10-14T18:43:36.920462Z"}]}
