Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-63887)

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

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 heap-based buffer overflow in iscsi_encode_text_output() when processing iSCSI login text parameters. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted login request with many minimal key-value pairs to cause a denial of service.

The issue can be triggered by expansion of unknown keys into larger "NotUnderstood" response records during login negotiation.


2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-68158)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

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 integer overflow in decode_new_up_state_weight() when processing a corrupted CEPH_MSG_OSD_MAP message containing a crafted osdmap. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted message to disclose sensitive information.

The issue can lead to out-of-bounds reads while decoding the new_state portion of the osdmap.
