CVE-2026-72497

Estado: RecibidaAlta (8.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/bnxt_re: Add a max slot check for SQ

The variable WQE mode must be validated against the maximum slots supported by HW. The max supported value is 64K. Adding a max and min check and fail if user supplied value is more than the max supported and zero.

CVSS

Versión: 3.1
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Puntuación base: 8.8

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).
