      <title>CVE-2026-53012 — nexthop: fix IPv6 route referencing IPv4 nexthop</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-53012</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux, Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518-4 PN/DP MFP, Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518F-4 PN/DP MFP, Siemens SIPLUS S7-1500 CPU 1518-4 PN/DP MFP&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nexthop: fix IPv6 route referencing IPv4 nexthop&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;syzbot reported a panic [1] [2].&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When an IPv6 nexthop is replaced with an IPv4 nexthop, the has_v4 flag
of all groups containing this nexthop is not updated. This is because
nh_group_v4_update is only called when replacing AF_INET to AF_INET6,
but the reverse direction (AF_INET6 to AF_INET) is missed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This allows a stale has_v4=false to bypass fib6_check_nexthop, causing
IPv6 routes to be attached to groups that effectively contain only AF_INET
members. Subsequent route lookups then call nexthop_fib6_nh() which
returns NULL for the AF_INET member, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix by calling nh_group_v4_update whenever the family changes, not just
AF_INET to AF_INET6.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Reproducer:
	# AF_INET6 blackhole
	ip -6 nexthop add id 1 blackhole
	# group with has_v4=false
	ip nexthop add id 100 group 1
	# replace with AF_INET (no -6), has_v4 stays false
	ip nexthop replace id 1 blackhole
	# pass stale has_v4 check
	ip -6 route add 2001:db8::/64 nhid 100
	# panic
	ping -6 2001:db8::1&lt;/p&gt;
