Summary
Moderate: kernel-rt security update
Details
The kernel-rt packages provide the Real Time Linux Kernel, which enables fine-tuning for systems with extremely high determinism requirements.
Security Fix(es):
- kernel: Linux kernel: Use-After-Free vulnerability in ATM subsystem (CVE-2025-38180)
- kernel: macvlan: fix error recovery in macvlan_common_newlink() (CVE-2026-23209)
- kernel: net/sched: cls_u32: use skb_header_pointer_careful() (CVE-2026-23204)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Title
net: atm: fix /proc/net/atm/lec handling
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atm: fix /proc/net/atm/lec handling
/proc/net/atm/lec must ensure safety against dev_lec[] changes.
It appears it had dev_put() calls without prior dev_hold(),
leading to imbalance and UAF.

The secondary dev_lec[] race is also attacker-paced via a tight read loop.\nPR:L - /proc/net/atm/lec is created with mode 0444, so any unprivileged local user can read it with no capability check on the path; the lec module itself is autoloadable by an unprivileged user via request_module(\"lec\") in do_vcc_ioctl() before any capable() test. CAP_NET_ADMIN is only needed to configure the LANE interface, which is a property of the target deployment rather than of the attacker.\nUI:N - The attacker triggers the defect entirely on their own by reading the procfs file; no victim action or cooperation of any kind is needed.\nS:U - The corrupted net_device object and the resulting memory corruption stay within the kernel\u0027s own security authority. No VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The refcount underflow lets a live net_device be freed while still referenced, and the missing lec_mutex allows the seq_show path to dereference a freed device; a UAF on a large kmalloc\u0027d object gives the attacker control over the reclaimed contents and a kernel-memory read primitive.\nI:H - Premature free of an in-use net_device is a use-after-free on a structure dense with function pointers and list heads, sprayable for arbitrary write and control-flow hijack leading to privilege escalation.\nA:H - Driving the reference count below one reaches BUG_ON(netdev_refcnt_read(dev) != 1) in netdev_run_todo(), and use of the freed device oopses the kernel; either outcome is a full system crash reachable by an unprivileged loop."

net/sched: cls_u32: use skb_header_pointer_careful()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_u32: use skb_header_pointer_careful()
skb_header_pointer() does not fully validate negative @offset values.
Use skb_header_pointer_careful() instead.
GangMin Kim provided a report and a repro fooling u32_classify():
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in u32_classify+0x1180/0x11b0

Title
macvlan: fix error recovery in macvlan_common_newlink()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
macvlan: fix error recovery in macvlan_common_newlink()
valis provided a nice repro to crash the kernel:
ip link add p1 type veth peer p2
ip link set address 00:00:00:00:00:20 dev p1
ip link set up dev p1
ip link set up dev p2
ip link add mv0 link p2 type macvlan mode source
ip link add invalid% link p2 type macvlan mode source macaddr add 00:00:00:00:00:20
ping -c1 -I p1 1.2.3.4
He also gave a very detailed analysis:
<quote valis>
The issue is triggered when a new macvlan link is created with
MACVLAN_MODE_SOURCE mode and MACVLAN_MACADDR_ADD (or
MACVLAN_MACADDR_SET) parameter, lower device already has a macvlan
port and register_netdevice() called from macvlan_common_newlink()
fails (e.g. because of the invalid link name).
In this case macvlan_hash_add_source is called from
macvlan_change_sources() / macvlan_common_newlink():
This adds a reference to vlan to the port's vlan_source_hash using
macvlan_source_entry.
vlan is a pointer to the priv data of the link that is being created.
When register_netdevice() fails, the error is returned from
macvlan_newlink() to rtnl_newlink_create():
if (ops->newlink)
err = ops->newlink(dev, ¶ms, extack);
else
err = register_netdevice(dev);
if (err < 0) {
free_netdev(dev);
goto out;
}
and free_netdev() is called, causing a kvfree() on the struct
net_device that is still referenced in the source entry attached to
the lower device's macvlan port.
Now all packets sent on the macvlan port with a matching source mac
address will trigger a use-after-free in macvlan_forward_source().
</quote valis>
With all that, my fix is to make sure we call macvlan_flush_sources()
regardless of @create value whenever "goto destroy_macvlan_port;"
path is taken.
Many thanks to valis for following up on this issue.

"value": "AV:L - Triggering the vulnerability requires CAP_NET_ADMIN to create macvlan interfaces, which is reachable via user namespaces (unshare -Urn) by an unprivileged local user. The setup is local even though the UAF is triggered by network packets.\nAC:L - The vulnerability is deterministically triggered by a straightforward sequence: create a macvlan source with a known-bad interface name to cause register_netdevice() failure, then send a packet with the matching source MAC. No race condition or special conditions needed.\nPR:L - Requires CAP_NET_ADMIN for RTM_NEWLINK netlink operations, but this capability is obtainable by any unprivileged user through user namespaces (unshare -Urn), as netlink_net_capable checks against the network namespace\u0027s user_ns, not init_user_ns.\nUI:N - No user interaction is needed. The attacker sets up the vulnerable macvlan configuration and triggers the UAF by sending packets on the lower device, all without any victim action.\nS:U - The vulnerability operates within the kernel\u0027s security context. While it allows kernel code execution, it does not cross a virtualization or sandbox boundary \u2014 it is standard kernel privilege escalation.\nC:H - The use-after-free in macvlan_forward_source() dereferences a freed macvlan_dev structure. An attacker can reclaim the freed memory via heap spraying, enabling arbitrary kernel memory reads through controlled object contents.\nI:H - The UAF accesses and writes to the freed macvlan_dev structure (e.g., macvlan_count_rx updates statistics). With heap spraying to reclaim the freed object, this provides arbitrary write primitives that can be leveraged for code execution.\nA:H - The use-after-free causes dereferencing of freed memory, which reliably causes kernel crashes (oops/panic) when the freed memory is reclaimed for other purposes. The reproducer in the commit message demonstrates a reliable crash."

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
