CVE-2026-72496
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Proper rollback if the ioremap fails
bnxt_qplib_alloc_dpi returns success even if ioremap fails. Add the proper rollback when the ioremap fails and return -ENOMEM status.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.2
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.14%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 3
- 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).
