The function skb_segment_list\ncannot correctly process GRO skbs that have been converted by XLAT,\nsince XLAT only translates the header of the head skb. Consequently,\nskbs in the frag_list may remain untranslated, resulting in protocol\ninconsistencies and reduced throughput.\n\nTo address this, the patch explicitly sets the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag\nfor GSO packets in XLAT's IPv4/IPv6 protocol translation helpers\n(bpf_skb_proto_4_to_6 and bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4). This marks GSO\npackets as potentially modified after protocol translation. As a\nresult, GSO segmentation will avoid using skb_segment_list and\ninstead falls back to skb_segment for packets with the SKB_GSO_DODGY\nflag. This ensures that only safe and fully translated frag_list\npackets are processed by skb_segment_list, resolving protocol\ninconsistencies and improving throughput when forwarding GRO packets\nconverted by XLAT.","title":"Description of the CVE"},{"category":"legal_disclaimer","text":"CSAF 2.0 data is provided by SUSE under the Creative Commons License 4.0 with Attribution (CC-BY-4.0).","title":"Terms of use"}],"publisher":{"category":"vendor","contact_details":"https://www.suse.com/support/security/contact/","name":"SUSE Product Security Team","namespace":"https://www.suse.com/"},"references":[{"category":"external","summary":"CVE-2026-23154","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-23154"},{"category":"external","summary":"SUSE Security Ratings","url":"https://www.suse.com/support/security/rating/"}],"title":"SUSE CVE CVE-2026-23154","tracking":{"current_release_date":"2026-02-16T00:26:05Z","generator":{"date":"2026-02-16T00:26:05Z","engine":{"name":"cve-database.git:bin/generate-csaf-vex.pl","version":"1"}},"id":"CVE-2026-23154","initial_release_date":"2026-02-16T00:26:05Z","revision_history":[{"date":"2026-02-16T00:26:05Z","number":"2","summary":"references added,severity changed from  to not set"}],"status":"interim","version":"2"}}}
