CVE-2026-68116

/// Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

vxlan: mdb: Fix source list corruption on a failed replace

When replacing the source list of an MDB remote entry, all existing

sources are first marked for deletion and vxlan_mdb_remote_srcs_add()

is then called to add the new source list. Sources present in the new

list have their deletion mark cleared, and any sources left marked

afterwards are removed.

If vxlan_mdb_remote_srcs_add() fails partway through, its error path

deletes all entries on the remote's source list. That rollback is only

correct for its other caller, vxlan_mdb_remote_add(), where the remote

was just allocated and the list contains solely entries added during

the call. On the replace path the list also holds pre-existing sources,

so a failed replace tears them down together with their (S, G)

forwarding entries instead of leaving the entry unchanged.

This is reachable from an existing (*, G) remote. An EXCLUDE filter

that loses sources starts fo
