CVE-2026-74626

Estado: RecibidaAlta (7.5)—

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

NTB: ntb_netdev: Preserve RX queue depth on allocation failure

ntb_netdev_rx_handler() hands the received skb to the network stack before allocating its replacement. If the allocation fails, nothing is reposted. Every failure therefore takes one buffer out of the RX queue while the interface remains up, and enough failures eventually stall reception.

A retry path could refill the queue later, but ntb_netdev has none. Allocate the replacement first instead. If that fails, drop the packet and repost the same skb. This keeps the queue full and lets packet delivery resume as soon as memory is available again.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

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

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

AV:N sin autenticación sugiere T1190, pero la vulnerabilidad es un defecto de asignación de memoria en el controlador NTB que causa DoS por agotamiento de buffers RX, no explotación remota verdadera; T1499.004 (exhaustión de recursos) por fallo de recepción de paquetes.

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.
