CVE-2026-45971
Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Limit bpf program signature size
Practical BPF signatures are significantly smaller than KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE
Allowing larger sizes opens the door for abuse by passing excessive size values and forcing the kernel into expensive allocation paths (via kmalloc_large or vmalloc).
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Puntuación base: 5.5
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.16%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 5
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
