CVE-2026-90114

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: bridge: Reject descending VLAN tunnel ranges A pair of descending VLAN and tunnel IDs can pass the tunnel range span check. The VLAN subtraction produces a negative int, which is converted to unsigned when compared with the u32 tunnel ID subtraction. It can therefore equal the wrapped tunnel ID delta. The range loop then performs no iterations. Since the batched notification handling added a post-loop error check, this leaves err uninitialized and makes the request's return value unpredictable. Reject descending VLAN ranges before comparing the spans. Valid ascending and single-entry ranges remain unchanged, while malformed descending ranges consistently return -EINVAL. This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual source review.
