are repeatable without races.\nPR:N - batman-adv OGM/TVLV processing performs no authentication or capability check on senders; any mesh peer that can inject ETH_P_BATMAN frames onto the victim's active hardif triggers the vulnerable path without Linux credentials on the victim host.\nUI:N - No victim user action is required once batman-adv is active; the kernel automatically processes incoming OGMs and issues TT_REQUEST unicasts in response to detected translation-table inconsistency, entirely driven by attacker-supplied mesh traffic.\nS:U - Impact is confined to excessive batman-adv translation-table control traffic and resource exhaustion on the victim mesh node within the kernel networking stack; it does not cross VM, container, IOMMU, or other security authority boundaries.\nC:N - The inverted conditional is a pure logic error in tt_req_node list housekeeping; it causes neither out-of-bounds access, use-after-free, nor uninitialized data transmission, so no information-disclosure or memory-read primitive exists.\nI:N - No attacker-controlled kernel memory writes or data corruption occur; the bug only suppresses pending-request tracking so duplicate TT_REQUEST packets are emitted, flooding mesh bandwidth without modifying stored translation-table contents.\nA:H - Removing the tt_req_node immediately after each successful TT_REQUEST disables the one-request-per-originator guard, letting a remote attacker drive unbounded GFP_ATOMIC allocations and mesh-wide TT_REQUEST storms that can exhaust CPU, memory, and link capacity on community mesh
