Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-53353)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-53353). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hsr: Remove WARN_ONCE() in hsr_addr_is_self().
syzbot reported the warning [0] in hsr_addr_is_self(),
whose assumption is simply wrong.
hsr->self_node is cleared in hsr_del_self_node(), which
is called from hsr_dellink().
Since dev->rtnl_link_ops->dellink() is called before
unregister_netdevice_many(), there is a window when
user can find the device but without hsr->self_node.
Let's remove WARN_ONCE() in hsr_addr_is_self().
[0]:
HSR: No self node
