SB20260720182 - Out-of-bounds read in Linux kernel block

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.

1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64053)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

The vulnerability allows a local user to cause an out-of-bounds read.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in bio_integrity_copy_user() and the block layer integrity handling when processing bio integrity metadata during read or write operations. A local user can trigger the vulnerable code path to cause an out-of-bounds read.

The issue occurs because bip_vcnt can exceed bip_max_vcnt, causing gap-merge checks to read past the bip_vec[] flexible array; on read operations the access remains in bounds but reaches a saved user bvec instead of the bounce segment.

Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
