DEBIAN-CVE-2026-22977

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: sock: fix hardened usercopy panic in sockrecverrqueue skbufffclonecache was created without defining a usercopy region, [1] unlike skbuffheadcache which properly whitelists the cb[] field. [2] This causes a usercopy BUG() when CONFIGHARDENEDUSERCOPY is enabled and the kernel attempts to copy skbuff.cb data to userspace via sockrecverrqueue() -> putcmsg(). The crash occurs when: 1. TCP allocates an skb using allocskbfclone() (from skbufffclonecache) [1] 2. The skb is cloned via skbclone() using the pre-allocated fclone [3] 3. The cloned skb is queued to skerrorqueue for timestamp reporting 4. Userspace reads the error queue via recvmsg(MSGERRQUEUE) 5. sockrecverrqueue() calls putcmsg() to copy serr->ee from skb->cb [4] 6. _checkheapobject() fails because skbufffclonecache has no usercopy whitelist [5] When cloned skbs allocated from skbufffclonecache are used in the socket error queue, accessing the sockexterrskb structure in skb->cb via putcmsg() triggers a usercopy hardening violation: [ 5.379589] usercopy: Kernel memory exposure attempt detected from SLUB object 'skbufffclonecache' (offset 296, size 16)!
