CVE-2026-43241
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntb: ntb_hw_switchtec: Fix array-index-out-of-bounds access
Number of MW LUTs depends on NTB configuration and can be set to MAX_MWS, This patch protects against invalid index out of bounds access to mw_sizes When invalid access print message to user that configuration is not valid.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.1
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.17%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 5
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
