CVE-2026-64563
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rhashtable: clear stale iter->p on table restart rhashtable_walk_start_check() has two restart paths when resuming a walk. When iter->walker.tbl is valid, it re-validates iter->p against the table and sets iter->p = NULL if the object is gone. When iter->walker.tbl is NULL (table was freed during resize), it resets slot and skip but forgets to clear iter->p. rhashtable_walk_next() then dereferences the stale iter->p, reading freed memory. This is a use-after-free. Any caller that does multi-fragment rhashtable walks across walk_stop/walk_start boundaries is affected. Concrete cases include netlink_diag (__netlink_diag_dump in net/netlink/diag.c) and TIPC (tipc_nl_sk_walk in net/tipc/socket.c). Crash stack (netlink_diag): BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in rhashtable_walk_next+0x365/0x3c0 Read of size 8 at addr ffff88801a9d2438 (freed kmalloc-2k, offset 1080) Call Trace: rhashtable_walk_next+0x365/0x3c0 (lib/rhashtable.c:1016) __netlink_diag_dump+0x160/0x760 (net/netlink/diag.c:122) netlink_diag_dump+0xc2/0x240 netlink_dump+0x5bc/0x1270 netlink_recvmsg+0x7a3/0x980 sock_recvmsg+0x1bc/0x200 __sys_recvfrom+0x1d4/0x2c0
