Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-23455)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in DecodeQ931() in the nf_conntrack_h323 netfilter component when parsing a crafted Q.931 packet with a zero UserUserIE length field. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to disclose sensitive information.
The issue occurs because a 16-bit length value is decremented by 1 to skip the protocol discriminator byte, and an encoded length of 0 wraps to -1 and is then passed to DecodeH323_UserInformation() as a large value.
2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43125)
CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds write in dlm_search_rsb_tree() when processing network messages with an excessive resource name length. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted network message to cause a denial of service.
The length value originates from the len parameter in dlm_dump_rsb_name().
3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46090)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
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 use-after-free in the ALSA aloop peer runtime handling when processing a format-change stop during concurrent stream operations. A local user can trigger concurrent playback start and capture close operations to cause a denial of service.
The issue occurs because a stale peer substream pointer may be used after the capture runtime is detached or freed.
4) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-45852)
CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free
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 double free in rxe_srq_from_init in the RDMA rxe subsystem when handling a failed copy_to_user operation during SRQ creation. A local user can trigger an error path to cause a denial of service.
