CVE-2026-64056
Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Cortina ethernet driver for Gemini devices. The driver used a single, shared buffer (SKB, or Socket Kernel Buffer) for assembling incoming network packets across multiple ethernet ports. This shared resource could lead to race conditions, where simultaneous access from different ports might cause unpredictable system behavior, potentially resulting in a denial of service or data integrity issues.
