neighbour: Enforce min/max to NDTPA_INTERVAL_PROBE_TIME_MS.
CVE-2026-98317 is fixed in 20 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98317, released October 6, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Urgent.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: neighbour: Enforce min/max to NDTPA_INTERVAL_PROBE_TIME_MS. NDTPA_INTERVAL_PROBE_TIME_MS sets .type and .min but misses .validation_type, so no validation is applied: # ynl --family rt-neigh --do setneightbl \ --json '{"name": "arp_cache", "parms": {"interval-probe-time-ms": 0}}' # ynl --family rt-neigh --dump getneightbl --output-json | \ jq '.[] | select(.name == "arp_cache" and has("config")) | .parms["interval-probe-time-ms"]' 0 Moreover, nla_get_msecs() uses msecs_to_jiffies(), and u64 is silently cast to u32, so a larger value can bypass the min check: e.g. 4294967296 == 0x100000000 # ynl --family rt-neigh --do setneightbl \ --json '{"name": "arp_cache", "parms": {"interval-probe-time-ms": 4294967296}}' # ynl --family rt-neigh --dump getneightbl --output-json | \ jq '.[] | select(.name == "arp_cache" and has("config")) | .parms["interval-probe-time-ms"]' 0 msecs_to_jiffies() returns MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET if the value is larger than INT_MAX. Also, INT_MAX ms overflows int NEIGH_VAR() when HZ > 1000 (Alpha, MIPS), and passing a negative integer to queue_delayed_work(unsigned long delay) causes sign extension, which wraps around the expiry time to the past, resulting in it being handled as 0 delay in the timer wheel. Let's use NLA_POLICY_FULL_RANGE() and limit the max to 1 day. The same max check is applied to sysctl as well. Note that this controls the probe interval for NTF_MANAGED entries, so the max of 1 day is unlikely to break any deployments.
