Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-80561)

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

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 disclose sensitive information and cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds read in decode_locker() in net/ceph/cls_lock_client.c when decoding locker data from an OSD response. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted OSD response to disclose sensitive information and cause a denial of service.

Exploitation requires a malicious or compromised OSD to interact with a kernel client issuing the lock.get_info class method, such as during RBD exclusive lock acquisition.
