Use-after-free in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-64113

Published: July 20, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU138529
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-2026-64113
CWE-ID: CWE-416
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 a use-after-free in ixgbevf_clean_rx_irq() when processing received frames that trigger VEPA multicast source pruning. A local user can trigger this code path to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs in NAPI softirq context when a freed skb is reused on the next loop iteration because the pointer is not cleared before continuing.
