CVE-2026-98604
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ovpn: replace bind when learning local endpoint struct ovpn_bind is published through peer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ovpn: replace bind when learning local endpoint
struct ovpn_bind is published through peer->bind with RCU, but local
endpoint learning updates bind->local in place under peer->lock. UDP TX
reads the field without that lock. In particular, a concurrent IPv6
update can therefore result in a torn address read.
Use ovpn_peer_reset_sockaddr to publish a replacement bind when learning
a new local endpoint, just as a remote endpoint change does. Preserve
the current remote address and reset the dst cache only after the new
bind has been published successfully.
Track remote endpoint changes separately so that float notification and
transport-address rehashing remain limited to actual peer floats.
