bonding broadcast

About this tag
The bonding broadcast tag covers discussions about broadcast handling in bonded network interfaces, particularly in Linux kernel contexts. Recent content focuses on CVE-2026-23276, a kernel vulnerability involving infinite recursion loops between bond-device broadcast and tunnel transmit functions, such as GRE tap slaves. The fix introduces a recursion cap for tunnel transmission and broadens detection across IPv4 and IPv6 tunnel paths. This tag is relevant for system administrators, network engineers, and IT professionals managing bonded interfaces and seeking to understand or mitigate related kernel bugs. Topics include kernel patches, network topology issues, and security vulnerabilities affecting bond broadcast behavior.

  1. CVE-2026-23276: Linux Kernel Fix for Tunnel Recursion Loops in Bond Broadcast

    CVE-2026-23276 is a reminder that some of the most dangerous kernel bugs are not glamorous buffer overflows or obvious use-after-free defects, but control-flow problems that only emerge under very specific network topologies. In this case, the Linux kernel fix closes an infinite recursion path...
