CVE-2026-98078

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipvs: fix reversed sequence option serialization

hton_seq() expects the host-order source first and the unaligned

network-order destination second. The version 1 sync sender passes these

arguments in reverse for both sequence blocks. This leaves 24 bytes of the

kmalloc-backed message unwritten. It may disclose stale heap data and

replace the live connection sequence state with values read from the

buffer.

Pass the connection sequence state as the source and the message payload as

the destination for both blocks.
