CVE-2024-26830 is an access-control flaw in the Linux kernel i40e Intel Ethernet driver’s SR-IOV virtual-function MAC-filter handling. When a physical function administrator assigned a primary MAC address to an untrusted virtual function, bringing that virtual-function interface down caused the virtual function’s cleanup behavior to delete its MAC filters and clear the administratively configured primary MAC. The corrected driver preserves a primary MAC address that was administratively configured by the physical function from removal by an untrusted virtual function.
