SB2026072186 - Out-of-bounds write in Linux kernel bpf

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.

1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64192)

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds write in BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE handling when creating and updating inode storage maps while the BPF LSM is uninitialized. A local privileged user can create and update a BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE map to cause a denial of service.

This issue occurs when CONFIG_BPF_LSM is enabled but the BPF LSM is not enabled at boot time, causing the inode security blob offset to remain uninitialized and leading to a kernel panic during later RCU callback execution.

Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
