CVSSv4: 8.7 [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]

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to a heap-based buffer overflow in usbip_pack_ret_submit() when processing a RET_SUBMIT response from a USB/IP server. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted response with an oversized number_of_packets value to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.

The issue occurs because the response value is later used as the loop bound for accesses to urb->iso_frame_desc[], whose allocation size was determined by the original submission.

2) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43383)

CWE-ID: CWE-208 - Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy

CVSSv4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.

The issue arises because IPv4 control buffer data is reused as IPv6 control buffer data in a cloned skb, which can lead to a forged home address option offset being used during IPv6 TLV parsing.

5) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43037)

CWE-ID: CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow

CVSSv4: 9.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to a stack-based buffer overflow in ip4ip6_err() and __ip_options_echo() when processing a crafted packet that triggers ICMP error handling on a cloned skb. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to execute arbitrary code.

The issue is caused by reusing skb cb[] data written by the IPv6 receive path as IPv4 metadata, allowing attacker-controlled packet data to influence the copied option length.

6) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43011)

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass routing policy restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in the seg6 lwtunnel dst_cache handling when processing input and output paths in different routing contexts. A local user can trigger packet processing through one path so that the other path reuses an incorrect cached destination to bypass routing policy restrictions.

The issue occurs because a single destination cache is shared between seg6_input_core() and seg6_output_core(), even though these paths may perform SID lookup under different routing contexts such as ingress-interface-based rules or VRF table separation.

CVSSv4: 8.7 [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]

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in the SCTP outqueue and stream scheduler state handling when processing a stale COOKIE-ECHO condition. A remote attacker can send a stale cookie error during SCTP association handling to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs when an association is rolled back from COOKIE_ECHOED to COOKIE_WAIT, leaving scheduler state referencing freed stream entries.

42) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46331)

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

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

The vulnerability allows a local user to cause memory corruption.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds write in tcf_pedit_act() when processing packet edit actions with typed keys and runtime header offsets. A local user can supply crafted pedit parameters that cause writes to a region that has not been properly copy-on-written to cause memory corruption.

The issue can involve negative offsets such as Ethernet header edits at ingress.

43) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46266)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to alter forwarding and path MTU exception handling state.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in RAW socket handling in the IPv4 and IPv6 ICMP error delivery paths when processing malicious incoming ICMP packets with an embedded packet header using protocol 255. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted ICMP packet to alter forwarding and path MTU exception handling state.

Exploitation requires the presence of a RAW socket created with IPPROTO_RAW.

44) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46243)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 8.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

The vulnerability allows a local user to disclose sensitive information, modify data, or cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the cifs.spnego key description handling in fs/smb/client/cifs_spnego.c when processing userspace-created cifs.spnego keys through request_key(2) or add_key(2). A local user can supply a crafted cifs.spnego description to disclose sensitive information, modify data, or cause a denial of service.

The issue arises because authority-bearing fields such as pid, uid, creduid, and upcall_target may be treated by cifs.upcall as kernel-originating inputs.

45) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46119)

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

CVSSv4: 6.9 [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]

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in libceph auth message processing when handling a crafted CEPH_MSG_AUTH_REPLY message. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted auth reply message to disclose sensitive information.

The issue occurs when a positive result value is misinterpreted as the size of the front segment to send, which can cause memory beyond the allocated buffer to be transmitted.

46) Integer underflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46043)

CWE-ID: CWE-191 - Integer underflow

CVSSv4: 8.7 [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]

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an integer underflow in rxe_rcv when processing a crafted RDMA packet with a forged BTH pad field and insufficient length. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs because payload_size() uses the attacker-controlled pad value and ICRC size when calculating the payload length.

47) Improper Initialization (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-45988)

CWE-ID: CWE-665 - Improper Initialization

CVSSv4: 8.7 [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]

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper state management in RxRPC packet processing when handling RESPONSE or CHALLENGE packets after a temporary processing failure. A remote attacker can send a sequence of crafted packets that trigger packet reprocessing to cause a denial of service.

The issue can occur when a packet is left in a partially decrypted state and then requeued for retry.

48) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43499)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 6.8 [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]

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

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in remove_waiter() when rolling back a proxy lock from futex_requeue(). A local user can trigger the affected rtmutex slowlock and proxy-lock rollback path to cause a denial of service.

The issue can leave waiter task state uncleared and operate on the wrong top priority waiter task.

49) Improper Check or Handling of Exceptional Conditions (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43493)

CWE-ID: CWE-703 - Improper Check or Handling of Exceptional Conditions

CVSSv4: 6.8 [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]

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of error conditions in the pcrypt crypto subsystem when processing MAY_BACKLOG requests. A local user can trigger requests that return EBUSY to cause a denial of service.

50) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43414)

CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free

CVSSv4: 6.8 [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]

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

The vulnerability exists due to double free in qla24xx_els_dcmd_iocb() error handling when releasing fcport references. A local user can trigger an error condition to cause a denial of service.
