OVN, the Open Virtual Network, is a system to support virtual network abstraction. OVN complements the existing capabilities of OVS to add native support for virtual network abstractions, such as virtual L2 and L3 overlays and security groups. Security Fix(es): * ovn: ovn: Heap Over-Read in ICMP Error Response Generation - security issue (CVE-2026-5265) * ovn: OVN: Information disclosure via crafted DHCPv6 packets (CVE-2026-5367) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Two security vulnerabilities have been identified in OVN (Open Virtual Network), a system supporting virtual network abstraction. The first is a heap over-read issue in ICMP error response generation (CVE-2026-5265). The second involves information disclosure via crafted DHCPv6 packets (CVE-2026-5367). These issues affect OVN as implemented in Red Hat Enterprise Linux Fast Datapath 8. Red Hat has issued an important security advisory with updated packages to address these vulnerabilities.

When generating an ICMP Destination Unreachable or Packet Too Big response, the handler copies a portion of the original packet into the ICMP error body using the IP header's self-declared total length (ip_tot_len for IPv4, ip6_plen for IPv6) without validating it against the actual packet buffer size. A VM can send a short packet with an inflated IP length field that triggers an ICMP error (e.g., by hitting a reject ACL), causing ovn-controller to read heap memory beyond the valid packet data and include it in the ICMP response sent back to the VM.
