Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-52934)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to corrupt kernel memory.

The vulnerability exists due to an integer overflow leading to an out-of-bounds write in batadv_tvlv_container_ogm_append() and batadv_tvlv_container_list_size() when processing registered TVLV containers. A local user can cause the accumulated TVLV size to exceed U16_MAX and trigger an undersized allocation to corrupt kernel memory.
