In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: mcast: use copy-on-write RCU updates in ip6_mc_source() pmc->sflist is read locklessly under rcu_read_lock() by inet6_mc_check() during packet reception in the UDP and RAW multicast receive paths. ip6_mc_source() mutated psl->sl_addr and psl->sl_count in-place when adding or removing a source filter. Additionally, when expanding the filter buffer, newpsl was published via rcu_assign_pointer() before writing the new source into the array. Because 16-byte struct in6_addr writes are not atomic and array shifting is not synchronized with RCU readers, concurrent readers in inet6_mc_check() could read torn IPv6 addresses or observe duplicated/missed source entries. Fix this by switching ip6_mc_source() to copy-on-write RCU updates: allocate and fully populate newpsl before publishing it via rcu_assign_pointer(), and reclaim the old filter via kfree_rcu(), matching ip6_mc_msfilter(). Also remove the now unused IP6_SFBLOCK macro.

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 6.12.113-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.

    For the detailed security status of linux please refer to its security     tracker page at:

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - ipv6: mcast: use copy-on-write RCU updates in ip6_mc_source() pmc->sflist is read locklessly under     rcu_read_lock() by inet6_mc_check() during packet reception in the UDP and RAW multicast receive paths.
    ip6_mc_source() mutated psl->sl_addr and psl->sl_count in-place when adding or removing a source filter.
    Additionally, when expanding the filter buffer, newpsl was published via rcu_assign_pointer() before     writing the new source into the array. Because 16-byte struct in6_addr writes are not atomic and array     shifting is not synchronized with RCU readers, concurrent readers in inet6_mc_check() could read torn IPv6     addresses or observe duplicated/missed source entries. Fix this by switching ip6_mc_source() to copy-on-     write RCU updates: allocate and fully populate newpsl before publishing it via rcu_assign_pointer(), and     reclaim the old filter via kfree_rcu(), matching ip6_mc_msfilter(). Also remove the now unused IP6_SFBLOCK     macro. (CVE-2026-98101)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
