Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64320)

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

CVSSv4: 8.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds heap read in nvmet_execute_disc_get_log_page() in the NVMe target discovery controller when handling a host-supplied log page offset in a Discovery Get Log Page request. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request with an out-of-range offset to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service.

The issue is reachable before authentication by any TCP, RDMA, or FC peer that can reach the nvmet target.


2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-74705)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

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 attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in __skb_udp_tunnel_segment() in net/ipv4/udp_offload.c when processing tunnel segmentation for skb data after pulling the tunnel header into the skb head. A local attacker can trigger skb head reallocation and subsequent use of a stale UDP header pointer to cause a denial of service.
