Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46150)
CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control
CVSSv4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a local user to bypass permission checks.
The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in fsnotify_get_mark_safe() when processing fanotify permission events. A local user can trigger permission events in the presence of an unrelated detached mark to bypass permission checks.
2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53196)
CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
CVSSv4: 5.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows an attacker with physical access to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to a heap-based buffer overflow in get_manuf_info() in the io_ti USB serial driver when processing a crafted USB device EEPROM descriptor. An attacker with physical access can connect a malicious USB device with a forged Size field to trigger the overflow and cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
The out-of-bounds access is compounded because a checksum routine also iterates over the device-controlled length after the EEPROM data is read.
3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64191)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
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 out-of-bounds read and out-of-bounds write in stub_xfer() in the i2c-stub driver when handling an I2C_SMBUS ioctl with I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA and an invalid block length. A local user can issue a crafted ioctl request with data->block[0] greater than 32 to cause a denial of service.
The issue affects the development and test i2c-stub driver, which is not built by default and must be loaded with a chip_addr= parameter.
4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64564)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
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 a use-after-free in sctp_process_asconf_param() when processing crafted SCTP ASCONF DEL-IP parameters. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted SCTP ASCONF message to cause a denial of service.
The issue can occur when a single ASCONF carries DEL-IP parameters that free the cached transport and a later wildcard DEL-IP reuses the dangling transport pointer.
