CVE-2026-68199

8.8 · HIGH
Published Aug 10, 2026 EPSS 0.41% (34th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-68199 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 10, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

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

wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB access from firmware ADDBA window size

aggr_recv_addba_req_evt() logs a debug message when the firmware-supplied

win_sz is outside [AGGR_WIN_SZ_MIN, AGGR_WIN_SZ_MAX] but does not

return. The out-of-range win_sz is then used in TID_WINDOW_SZ() to

compute a kzalloc size and stored in rxtid->hold_q_sz, leading to

zero-size or overflowed allocations and subsequent out-of-bounds access.

Clean up any previously active aggregation session for the TID first,

then return early when win_sz is out of the valid range, instead of

proceeding with a broken allocation size.

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.
