Description
This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53309)
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, modify data, or cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in dlm_match_regions() when comparing local and remote regions. A remote attacker can trigger the vulnerable region comparison to disclose sensitive information, modify data, or cause a denial of service.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53246)
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:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information or cause memory corruption.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in sctp_unpack_cookie() and cached peer INIT chunk processing when processing a crafted COOKIE_ECHO chunk. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted COOKIE_ECHO chunk with an inflated cached INIT chunk length to disclose sensitive information or cause memory corruption.
The issue occurs in a listening SCTP server while walking parameters from the cached peer INIT chunk embedded after the cookie.
3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53225)
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 __sctp_rcv_asconf_lookup() in net/sctp/input.c when processing a truncated trailing ASCONF chunk containing a declared IPv6 address parameter. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted SCTP packet to disclose sensitive information.
The issue is reachable from the no-association lookup path.
4) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53224)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
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 out-of-bounds read in SCTP cookie processing in sctp_unpack_cookie(), sctp_process_init(), and sctp_raw_to_bind_addrs() when handling a malformed COOKIE_ECHO containing a truncated embedded INIT chunk or malformed address parameters. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted COOKIE_ECHO to cause a denial of service.
When cookie authentication is disabled, an oversized raw address list length can also be used to trigger the out-of-bounds read condition.
5) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53221)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause traffic to be associated with the wrong tunnel.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in vti6_tnl_lookup() when matching IPv6 VTI tunnels during fallback wildcard tunnel searches. A remote attacker can send network traffic that triggers a hash collision and incorrect tunnel selection to cause traffic to be associated with the wrong tunnel.
The issue occurs because candidate tunnels in the fallback search were not verified to actually use wildcard local or remote addresses.
6) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53131)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
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 input validation in netfilter Ethernet header handling when processing packets that reach ip6t_eui64, xt_mac, ipset bitmap:ip,mac, hash:ip,mac, hash:mac, or nf_log_syslog code paths without a valid Ethernet MAC header. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to cause a denial of service.
The issue occurs because these paths access eth_hdr(skb) after insufficient validation that the skb is associated with an Ethernet device and that a full MAC header is present.
7) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53043)
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 dlm_match_regions() when processing a crafted DLM_QUERY_REGION network message. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted network message to disclose sensitive information.
8) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-38724)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
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 escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the nfsd4_setclientid_confirm() function in fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.
