Out-of-bounds write in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-64217

Published: July 27, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU139784
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64217
CWE-ID: CWE-787
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a local user to cause memory corruption.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds write in netfs_extract_user_iter() when extracting user-supplied pages from an iov_iter. A local user can trigger an extract_pages overrun to cause memory corruption.

The issue occurs if iov_iter_extract_pages() overfills the pages array, causing excess pages to be included in the constructed iterator.
