An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-23414 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-2026-23414/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23414/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-23414","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23414/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-23414","record":{"aliases":["AZL-84056","BELL-CVE-2026-23414","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-23414","GHSA-8fgp-q3pf-q3rh","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-23414","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-23414","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-23414","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-23414"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel TLS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A memory leak in the Linux kernel TLS subsystem allows attackers to cause denial of service by exhausting kernel memory through specific decryption failures.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-401","name":"Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ntls: Purge async_hold in tls_decrypt_async_wait()\n\nThe async_hold queue pins encrypted input skbs while\nthe AEAD engine references their scatterlist data. Once\ntls_decrypt_async_wait() returns, every AEAD operation\nhas completed and the engine no longer references those\nskbs, so they can be freed unconditionally.\n\nA subsequent patch adds batch async decryption to\ntls_sw_read_sock(), introducing a new call site that\nmust drain pending AEAD operations and release held\nskbs.
