Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-80558)

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, corrupt memory, or cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds read in ceph_pg_to_up_acting_osds() and calc_target() when processing a corrupted osdmap containing an invalid primary_temp OSD index. A remote attacker can send a crafted osdmap with a nonexistent OSD index to trigger out-of-bounds array access to disclose sensitive information, corrupt memory, or cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs because the primary_temp OSD index was not properly validated before being used as the target OSD for a request.
