Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46067)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds memory access in the DAMON core when processing a user-supplied damos_quota_goal->nid value for node_memcg_used_bp or node_memcg_free_bp. A local user can supply an invalid node id to trigger out-of-bounds memory access and cause a denial of service.
Exploitation requires access to the DAMON user-space interface.
