🚨 CVE-2026-41992
GNU gzip contains a global buffer overflow vulnerability in the LZH decompression logic caused by improper reuse of shared global state between different decompression formats within a single execution. GNU gzip maintains a global array that is shared across the LZ77, LZW, and LZH decompression routines and is not reinitialized between files processed in the same invocation.
By decompressing a specially crafted LZW file followed by a specially crafted LZH file in a single gzip -d command, an attacker can poison the shared global state and subsequently trigger an out‑of‑bounds read in the LZH decoder. The LZH decompression logic follows stale values left in the shared array, causing reads past the end of the allocated global buffer.
This issue has been fixed in the commit 63dbf6b3b9e6e781df1a6a64e609b10e23969681

🚨 CVE-2026-74736
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_bpf: reject dev-bound programs bound to a different device
cls_bpf_prog_from_efd() obtained a SCHED_CLS program via
bpf_prog_get_type_dev() but never verified that a device-bound (offloaded)
program's bound netdev matches the TC netdev the classifier is being
attached to. This let a program loaded with prog_ifindex for device A be
attached via cls_bpf + skip_sw to device B; deleting device A then
destroyed the program's offload state while it was still attached to
device B, triggering a netdevsim WARN (panic with panic_on_warn=1).
Mirror the XDP attach path (net/core/dev.c) and reject the attach with
-EINVAL when a dev-bound program's bound device does not match the
target device.

🚨 CVE-2026-74737
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: Fix port_id extraction from SRC TAG
On the packet reception path, the ID of the MAC Port on which the packet
was received, is embedded in the RX DMA Descriptor's metadata. The ID is
extracted using the helper function cppi5_desc_get_tags_ids() which fills
in the 16-bit Source Tag into the 'port_id' variable. However, it is only
the lower 8-bits of the 16-bit Source Tag that represent the MAC Port ID,
while the upper 8-bits are Hardware-Reserved and carry an arbitrary value.
With the existing logic, sporadic kernel crash is observed due to the
subsequent driver code accessing out-of-bound memory because of an invalid
port_id.
Hence, fix the port_id extraction logic to use only the lower 8-bits of the
Source Tag as the MAC Port ID.

net/sched: cls_u32: skip hash tables in u32_bind_class()
u32_walk() enumerates both struct tc_u_hnode and struct tc_u_knode

🚨 CVE-2026-74741
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ngbe: fix NULL pointer dereference in non-MSI-X interrupt enabling
In non-MSI-X mode (such as legacy INTx or single MSI), wx->msix_entry is
not allocated or initialized. Calling NGBE_INTR_MISC(wx) dereferences
wx->msix_entry->entry, leading to a NULL pointer dereference crash.
This issue was introduced by fixing the IRQ vector when the number of
VFs is 7. Fix the issue by explicitly checking `pdev->msix_enabled` to
determine the correct vector index.
Additionally, as a side fix, set the interrupt mask to BIT(0) for the
non-MSI-X fallback. In MSI/INTx mode, the MISC and queue interrupts
share vector 0, and the WX_PX_MISC_IVAR register is only valid in the
MSI-X case. Thus, BIT(0) is the correct mask for the miscellaneous cause
when MSI-X is disabled.

🚨 CVE-2026-74742
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
veth: fix queue index used to wake the peer txq in veth_poll
veth_poll() derives the index of the peer TX queue to wake from
rq->xdp_rxq.queue_index. That field is only initialized by
xdp_rxq_info_reg() in veth_enable_xdp_range(), which runs only when an
XDP program is attached. On the plain GRO/NAPI path
(veth_napi_enable_range()) xdp_rxq_info_reg() is never called, so
queue_index stays 0 for every queue, as priv->rq is zero-allocated.
So in a multi-queue setup with GRO enabled and no XDP program attached,
every NAPI instance looks at the peer's TX queue 0. If veth_xmit() stops
peer TX queue 1 because the ptr_ring is full (NETDEV_TX_BUSY), nothing
ever wakes it again: the poller draining queue 1 wakes queue 0 instead.
veth implements no ndo_tx_timeout, so the netdev watchdog does not kick
in either, and the queue stays stopped indefinitely.
Derive the index from the position of the rq within priv->rq instead,
which is correct regardless of whether XDP was ever enabled.

macvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from lowerdev
macvlan devices inherit hard_header_len from lowerdev during macvlan_init(),
but leave needed_headroom and needed_tailroom set to 0.
When the underlying lowerdev requires extra headroom or tailroom for

🚨 CVE-2026-74745
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eth: bnxt: avoid deadlock when canceling IRQ affinity notifier
Unregistering IRQ affinity notifiers waits for the callback synchronously.
bnxt takes the netdev instance lock in the notifier (to restart the queue)
and cancels the work under the same lock. This may obviously deadlock.
Move the restart to the async service task. The queue restart isn't
super time sensitive. Store the new TPH tag, schedule the task.
Safely canceling the service task is already ironed out.
In bnxt_request_irq() the order of registering notifier, affinity and
initial TPH programming has to be inverted. I think it was racy
previously since user may trigger an update as soon as notifier
is installed.
There's a small known gap - if pcie_tph_get_cpu_st() fails at init
and the target tag is 0 we may miss programming the entry.
This does not seem worth fixing, the code has skip-on-failure
all over the place, anyway.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Key slots are released through a kref and the existing release path
frees the AEAD transforms from an RCU callback. That is not safe for all
crypto implementations: crypto_free_aead can sleep, for example when an
async or hardware implementation has teardown work to complete.
Use queue_rcu_work for key-slot release. This keeps the RCU grace period
needed by lockless key-slot readers, but runs the actual crypto teardown
from workqueue context where sleeping is allowed. Once the rcu_work
callback runs, pre-existing RCU readers are gone, and the final kref put
already proves that no transform user remains, so the worker can release
the AEAD transforms and free the slot directly.
The previous patch drains ovpn_wq during module exit, so queued key-slot
teardown work cannot outlive module text.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: lib: Fix ZBB strnlen reading past count boundary
The ZBB-optimized strnlen loop loads one word ahead before checking the
aligned boundary:
REG_L t1, SZREG(t0) // load next word
addi t0, t0, SZREG // advance
orc.b t1, t1
bgeu t0, t4, 4f // boundary check AFTER load
where t4 = (s + count) & -SZREG. When s is aligned and count is a
multiple of SZREG, t4 equals s + count and the loop loads a full word
starting at exactly s + count. If s + count falls on a page boundary
with the next page unmapped, this faults.
Fix by computing the aligned boundary from the last valid byte
(s + count - 1) instead of s + count. This makes the loop stop at the
word containing the last valid byte rather than potentially loading the
word after it. The count == 0 case is already handled by the beqz
early exit.
Also add a pre-loop guard (bgeu t0, t4) for the case where all valid
bytes fit within the first word. With the adjusted boundary, t4 can
equal t0, and entering the loop with stale register state from the
first-word processing would produce incorrect results.
The final minu clamp ensures the result is still correct when the last
loaded word extends past s + count - 1 within the same aligned word.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: validate cookie AUTH state before use
When cookie authentication is disabled, COOKIE_ECHO restores fixed-size
AUTH fields directly from peer-controlled cookie bytes. A forged RANDOM
length, HMAC list, or CHUNKS list can then reach association consumers
with lengths or identifiers that were never validated against the local
backing arrays.
A forged RANDOM length can cause out-of-bounds reads during key-vector
construction. A forged HMAC identifier also caused a 32-byte write past
a zero-length AUTH chunk, providing a primitive for a local privilege
escalation chain.
Validate the cookie's RANDOM, HMACS, and CHUNKS parameters at the cookie
trust boundary before copying them into the association. Reject invalid
types, malformed lengths, unsupported HMAC identifiers, HMAC lists

🚨 CVE-2026-74753
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf: Reject exited events as group leaders
perf_event_remove_on_exec() sets remove-on-exec events to the EXIT state
and detaches their group relationships. The event's file descriptor can
remain open, however, and perf_event_open() currently accepts that event
as a group leader because its early validation rejects only REVOKED and
DEAD events.
A new sibling can consequently be linked to the detached leader. When
the leader is closed, perf_group_detach() observes that its
PERF_ATTACH_GROUP bit is already clear and skips the new sibling. The
sibling then retains a group_leader pointer to the freed event.
Reject group leaders in the EXIT state. Perform the check while holding
the shared context mutex so that an exec in the target task cannot detach
the leader between validation and group attachment.

🚨 CVE-2026-80519
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ovpn: finish crypto callback cleanup before peer release
Crypto completion callbacks hold both key-slot and peer references. The
peer reference pins the netdev, and dropping the last peer reference can
let netdev unregistration and module removal make progress.
Do not release that peer reference before the callback has finished its
own cleanup. If ovpn_crypto_key_slot_put runs after ovpn_peer_put, it can
schedule an RCU callback backed by module text after ovpn_cleanup
rcu_barrier has already run. The TX error path also freed the remaining
skb after ovpn_peer_put, leaving callback cleanup outside the peer/netdev
lifetime window.
Release the key slot and free any remaining skb first, then drop the peer
reference as the last callback action.

🚨 CVE-2026-80520
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ovpn: fix NULL dereference when killing missing key
ovpn_crypto_kill_key assumes both crypto slots are populated and
dereferences each slot before checking it. That is not guaranteed: a
peer can have only one installed key, and the kill path may be asked to
remove a key that is not present.
Read each slot once while holding the crypto state lock, check for NULL
before looking at key_id, and only replace the slot that actually
matches.

🚨 CVE-2026-80522
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: tegra - fix rctx->cryptlen calculation in tegra_gcm_do_one_req()
Perform rctx->cryptlen calculation in tegra_gcm_do_one_req() the same way
it is done in tegra_ccm_crypt_init(). The current formulae may lead to a
crash if a caller does not call tegra_gcm_setauthsize() and so ctx->authsize
remains zero. Then a decrypt operation with incorrect rctx->cryptlen will
lead to a write beyound rctx->dst_sg buffer.
As a follow-up cleanup delete struct tegra_aead_ctx->authsize field since
it appears to be completely unused. Also simplify tegra_ccm_setauthsize()
and tegra_gcm_setauthsize() functions respectively.
