CVE-2026-64544
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: asymmetric_keys - fix OOB read in pefile_digest_pe_contents
pefile_digest_pe_contents() computes the trailing-data hash length as pelen - (hashed_bytes + certs_size). A crafted PE can make the addition exceed pelen, causing the unsigned subtraction to underflow to ~4 GiB. This is passed to crypto_shash_update() which reads out of bounds and panics on unmapped vmalloc guard pages.
Validate that the addition does not overflow and the result does not exceed pelen before the subtraction. Return -ELIBBAD on failure.
