Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Observable discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64507)
CWE-ID: CWE-203 - Observable discrepancy
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 improper protection against speculative execution in BPF JIT memory reuse on x86 systems when reusing JIT-compiled BPF memory under Spectre-v2 conditions. A local user can trigger BPF JIT allocation reuse to disclose sensitive information.
Only systems with BPF-JIT enabled are affected.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
