CVE-2026-74610

7.8 · HIGH
Published Aug 22, 2026 EPSS 0.13% (3th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-74610 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 22, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8, rated HIGH. 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:

tls: don't leave a full plaintext sk_msg ring unpushed

When the copy path in tls_sw_sendmsg_locked() adds the fragment that fills

the plaintext sk_msg ring, it does not set full_record, so the record is

left full and unpushed. A later splice() then adds to an already full

ring: sk_msg_page_add() has no fullness check of its own, so sg.end wraps

onto sg.start and the ring appears empty. Fragments added after that

overwrite live entries, and sg.size no longer matches what is reachable

between sg.start and sg.end, so pushing the record runs the scatterwalk off

the end of the scatterlist.

An unprivileged user can trigger this on a loopback TCP socket with the

"tls" ULP attached:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
