Overview

CVE-2026-64395 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 25, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical description

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

ksmbd: require source read access for duplicate extents

FSCTL_DUPLICATE_EXTENTS_TO_FILE passes the source file directly to

vfs_clone_file_range() or vfs_copy_file_range() without checking the SMB

access mask granted to the source handle. A handle opened with attribute

access can consequently be used to copy file contents into an

attacker-readable destination.

Require FILE_READ_DATA on the source handle before either VFS operation,

matching other ksmbd data-copy paths.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. 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.
