From: Yilin Zhu <zylzyl2333@gmail.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v7.1-rc3 commit bc0fcb9823cd0894934cf968b525c575833d7078 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/15406 CVE: CVE-2026-46172 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... -------------------------------- xfrm6_rcv_encap() performs an IPv6 route lookup when the skb does not already have a dst attached. ip6_route_input_lookup() returns a referenced dst entry even when the lookup resolves to an error route. If dst->error is set, xfrm6_rcv_encap() drops the skb without attaching the dst to the skb and without releasing the reference returned by the lookup. Repeated packets hitting this path therefore leak dst entries. Release the dst before jumping to the drop path.
