Integer overflow in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-63925

Published: July 20, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU138730
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-63925
CWE-ID: CWE-190
Exploitation vector: Remote access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass replay protection.

The vulnerability exists due to an integer overflow in macsec_post_decrypt() when processing a crafted replayed frame on an XPN association with a packet number of 0xffffffff. A remote attacker can replay a captured legitimate frame to bypass replay protection.

Exploitation requires capturing a legitimate frame carrying the maximum 32-bit packet number on an XPN association.
