Integer overflow in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-46195

Published: May 29, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU132991
CSH Severity: Medium
CVSS v4: 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]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46195
CWE-ID: CWE-190
Exploitation vector: Remote access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an integer overflow in parse_sec_desc(), build_sec_desc(), and id_mode_to_cifs_acl() when processing a server-supplied security descriptor with a crafted dacloffset value. A remote attacker can return a malicious security descriptor to trigger pointer wraparound and cause a denial of service.

The issue affects 32-bit builds and can be reached through the chmod/chown rewrite paths.
