      <title>CVE-2026-99122 — vsock/vmci: validate packet source for connected sockets</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-99122</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;vsock/vmci: validate packet source for connected sockets&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;vmci_transport_recv_stream_cb() looks up sockets first by the full source
and destination tuple, then by destination only in the bound table. The
fallback can select a non-listening socket without checking whether the
packet came from its stored peer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This was reproduced with two VMCI contexts. A RST from the context not
stored in a TCP_SYN_SENT socket reset that socket after it was selected by
the destination-only lookup.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;VMCI can process notification packets in bottom-half context when the
socket is not owned by user context, or defer packets to a workqueue. Use
vsock_check_source() after taking the socket lock in the bottom-half path,
and recheck after lock_sock() in the workqueue path. Listening sockets
continue to accept packets from any source.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Reply with a RST addressed from the received packet before dropping a
source that fails validation. This preserves the existing reset behavior
for bound non-listening and concurrently closed sockets without directing
the reset to a connected socket&amp;#39;s stored peer.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
