Overview

CVE-2026-92523 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 17, 2026.

Technical description

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

RDMA/nldev: validate dynamic counter attribute length

RDMA_NLDEV_ATTR_STAT_HWCOUNTERS is a nested attribute whose children are

consumed directly with nla_get_u32(). The top-level policy validates only

the container, so it does not establish the fixed shape of each child.

Require every child payload to be exactly one u32 before reading it.
