CVE-2026-45896
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: intel-dg: Fix accessing regions before setting nregions
The regions array is counted by nregions, but it's set only after accessing it:
[] UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/mtd/devices/mtd_intel_dg.c:750:15 [] index 0 is out of range for type '<unknown> [*]'
Fix it by also fixing an undesired behavior: the loop silently ignores ENOMEM and continues setting the other entries.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.17%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 6
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
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).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution70 % - Impacto secundario
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact60 %
Vulnerabilidad local (AV:L/PR:L) en kernel Linux que permite escalada de privilegios mediante acceso a arrays sin inicializar (CWE-129). Acceso local sin interacción del usuario posibilita ejecución de código con privilegios elevados.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
