📢 Attention developers and node operators:

We strongly recommend updating to the latest version of LND to mitigate against the Linux kernel CVE.

lnd v0.20.7 and v0.21.6 have been released, which contain a Go-specific mitigation (MPTCP flag off) for CVE-2026-98432 (use-after-free in the Linux kernel's IPv4 TCP).

We recommend that all users update to this new version.

Existing binaries can be protected by running them with the GODEBUG=multipathtcp=0 env variable: github.com/golang/go/issu….

Note that as this is a Linux kernel level vulnerability, the only way to fully mitigate the vuln is to patch your kernel, as any network facing service may be affected (known PoCs use MPTCP, but other exploit vectors may be possible).
