Memory corruption in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-23362

Published: March 25, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU124476
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 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]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-23362
CWE-ID: CWE-119
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper memory management in the CAN BCM (Broadcast Manager) subsystem when handling runtime updates of bcm_op structures. A local user can send a specially crafted request to trigger a use of an uninitialized spinlock, leading to a system crash.

The issue specifically occurs in the bcm_rx_setup() function, where the bcm_tx_lock is not initialized when the RX_RTR_FRAME flag is set, which can lead to undefined behavior during lock operations.
