From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ethernet: cortina: Make RX SKB per-port The SKB used to assemble packets from fragments in gmac_rx() is static local, but the Gemini has two ethernet ports, meaning there can be races between the ports on a bad day if a device is using both. Make the RX SKB a per-port variable and carry it over between invocations in the port struct instead. Zero the pointer once we call napi_gro_frags(), on error (after calling napi_free_frags()) or if the port is stopped. Zero it in some place where not strictly necessary just to emphasize what is going on. This was found by Sashiko during normal patch review. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-64056 to this issue.

Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: drivers/net/ethernet/cortina/gemini.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/27856d533eca3804008695f61c1e4d5ff984196b https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b6b22824b30e48ce1df3a2e80990f4b8505deb50 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6bba24e9ebe6f1c0b356cd471e36bdc7fa434897 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3b249988d774dacf13b203817e971934a42243c4 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/72158ea185b27afae163949b0e86164cb6b64e55 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cfd62907f3cdbc3b6da8f49ba907c0390018fe5e https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/67a35e7da7ef9d2f000aa758552a128324c604a0 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/06937db21ee311ed07eba47954447245041a982d
