Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-74470)

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

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 an out-of-bounds write in the resp_report_zones() function in the scsi_debug driver when processing a REPORT ZONES command with a crafted allocation length on 32-bit systems. A local user can send a specially crafted REPORT ZONES command to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs when an allocation length in the 0xFFFFFFC1 through 0xFFFFFFFF range causes a zero-sized allocation to be dereferenced on 32-bit systems.
