CVE-2024-26950 | BDVDB-2026-233151 Detail
LinuxLinux
Description#
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wireguard: netlink: access device through ctx instead of peer The previous commit fixed a bug that led to a NULL peer->device being dereferenced. It's actually easier and faster performance-wise to instead get the device from ctx->wg. This semantically makes more sense too, since ctx->wg->peer_allowedips.seq is compared with ctx->allowedips_seq, basing them both in ctx. This also acts as a defence in depth provision against freed peers.
Impact#
Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact high, integrity impact high, availability impact high. Attack vector: local.
Weaknesses#
No weakness recorded in the source data.
