5.5 · MEDIUM
Published Jul 19, 2026 linux CWE-476 EPSS 0.15% (5th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-64094 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting linux linux_kernel. It was published on July 19, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5, rated MEDIUM. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

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

batman-adv: bla: avoid NULL-ptr deref for claim via dropped interface

Without rtnl_lock held, a hardif might be retrieved as primary interface of

a meshif, but then (while operating on this interface) getting decoupled

from the mesh interface. In this case, the meshif still exists but the

pointer from the primary hardif to the meshif is set to NULL.

The mesh_iface must be checked first to be non-NULL before continuing to

send an ARP request using meshif.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from linux. Update linux_kernel to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
