An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-63922 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-63922/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-63922/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-63922","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-63922/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-63922","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-63922","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-63922","GHSA-5w2v-4j6c-44h8","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-63922","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-63922","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-63922"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel IPv6 extension header parser allows attackers to cause denial of service or execute arbitrary code.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nipv6: exthdrs: refresh nh after handling HAO option\n\nip6_parse_tlv() caches skb_network_header(skb) in nh while walking\nIPv6 TLVs.\n\nipv6_dest_hao() may call pskb_expand_head() for a cloned skb, which can\nmove the skb head and invalidate the cached network header pointer.\nRefresh nh after ipv6_dest_hao() returns so any trailing padding or TLVs\nare parsed from the current skb head.\n\nThis matches the existing pattern used in ip6_parse_tlv() after helpers\nthat can modify skb header storage.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"ipv6: exthdrs: refresh nh after handling HAO option","id":"CVE-2026-63922","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"octeontx2-af: validate body pcifunc in rvu_mbox_handler_rep_event_notify","id":"CVE-2026-63923"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ip6: vti: Use ip6_tnl.net in vti6_siocdevprivate().","id":"CVE-2026-63921"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-07-19","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel IPv6 extension header parser allows attackers to cause denial of service or execute arbitrary code.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-63922/"}
