Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64299)

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:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in regex_match_glob() glob matching in the tracing event filter subsystem when processing non-NUL-terminated string event fields. A local user can supply a crafted glob filter against such fields to disclose sensitive information.

One reported path reaches the issue from the xfs_lookup tracepoint, and the affected string fields may be dynamic char arrays copied without a trailing NUL byte.
