It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-26589 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-26589/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-26589/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-26589","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-26589/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-26589","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-26589","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-26589","GHSA-rw7c-wqqw-8w6c","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2024-26589","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-26589"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A flaw in the Linux kernel BPF subsystem allows out-of-bounds memory access via variable offset ALU operations, potentially leading to crashes or code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbpf: Reject variable offset alu on PTR_TO_FLOW_KEYS\n\nFor PTR_TO_FLOW_KEYS, check_flow_keys_access() only uses fixed off\nfor validation.
