Published Aug 28, 2026EPSS 0.48%

Overview

CVE-2026-80714 is a critical-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 28, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 (CRITICAL).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8, rated CRITICAL. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical description

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

ipvs: do not propagate one-packet flag to synced conns

Synced connections can be created before their destination exists. When

the destination is later added, ip_vs_bind_dest() copies connection flags

from the destination into cp->flags.

IP_VS_CONN_F_ONE_PACKET connections are not synced. If a synced

connection inherits IP_VS_CONN_F_ONE_PACKET while it is already hashed,

expiry can treat it as a one-packet connection and skip unlinking the

existing conn_tab node, leaving stale hash nodes pointing at a freed

struct ip_vs_conn.

Drop IP_VS_CONN_F_ONE_PACKET from destination flags when binding synced

connections.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
