Integer overflow in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-90074

Vulnerability identifier: #VU151410

CSH Severity: Low

CVSS v4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2026-90074

CWE-ID: CWE-190

Exploitation vector: Local access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

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

The vulnerability exists due to signed integer overflow in the fq_pie queuing discipline when initializing the default quantum from a device MTU. A local privileged user can configure a device with a huge MTU to cause a denial of service.

Exploitation requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in a user namespace and a device whose MTU plus hard header length causes psched_mtu() to wrap into the sign bit.
