CVE-2026-98031

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nexthop: Initialize extack in remove_nh_grp_entry() remove_nh_grp_entry() prints the extack message when a listener fails to replace the reduced nexthop group. However, extack is not initialized and listeners are not required to set a message when returning an error. Neither netdevsim nor mlxsw do so when an allocation fails, resulting in the dereference of an uninitialized stack pointer. Fix by zero-initializing extack, as was done in commit 6347c5314cee ("nexthop: initialize extack in nh_res_bucket_migrate()").
