CVE-2026-72423

The Linux kernel's bpf subsystem is vulnerable to an issue with conntrack lookup and allocation kfuncs. The verifier checks only the memory range described by opts__sz, but the wrappers unconditionally write opts->error whenever the internal lookup or allocation helper returns an error. For an invalid size smaller than the end of opts->error, that write can land outside the verifier-checked range. This pr [truncated]

CVE-2026-72422

The CVE-2026-72422 vulnerability is a use-after-free issue in the Linux kernel's ksmbd module, specifically in the SMB2 NEGOTIATE handler. This occurs when a client drives two SMB2 NEGOTIATE requests on the same connection, allowing a concurrent send-path worker to read freed memory, producing a slab use-after-free read. Linux kernel users and administrators should be aware of this vulnerability and take [truncated]

CVE-2026-72415

The Linux kernel has a vulnerability in the ASoC SDCA component. The ge_put_enum_double() function does not validate the user-supplied enumeration index before passing it to snd_soc_enum_item_to_val(), which can lead to reading past the end of the values buffer. This issue has been resolved by adding a bounds check to reject out-of-range items before using them.

CVE-2026-72414

The Linux kernel has a vulnerability in the net: dsa: sja1105 component. A conversion of user-provided period to SJA1105 clock ticks may result in a zero value for pin_duration, which can cause a division by zero in future_base_time(). This vulnerability can lead to system instability or crashes if exploited. Linux kernel users and administrators should review system configurations, ensure proper input va [truncated]

CVE-2026-72397

The Linux kernel vulnerability CVE-2026-72397 has been resolved. The pmbus_data2reg_vid() function was modified to honor the vrm_version in its calculations, as it previously hardcoded the VR11 encoding. This change ensures that drivers selecting non-VR11 VID modes and exposing regulators or hwmon vout setters will not send incorrect codes to PMBUS_VOUT_COMMAND.
