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-2026-31590 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-2026-31590/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-31590/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-31590","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-31590/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-31590","record":{"aliases":["AZL-83654","BELL-CVE-2026-31590","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-31590","GHSA-5gvm-8x7g-h7xx","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-31590","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-31590","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-31590","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-31590","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-31590","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-31590"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel KVM","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can trigger a kernel warning and potential denial of service by passing an invalid size to the KVM memory encryption registration ioctl.","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":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nKVM: SEV: Drop WARN on large size for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION\n\nDrop the WARN in sev_pin_memory() on npages overflowing an int, as the\nWARN is comically trivially to trigger from userspace, e.g. by doing:\n\n  struct kvm_enc_region range = {\n          .addr = 0,\n          .size = -1ul,\n  };\n\n  __vm_ioctl(vm, KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION, \u0026range);\n\nNote, the checks in sev_mem_enc_register_region() that presumably exist to\nverify the incoming address+size are completely worthless, as both \"addr\"\nand \"size\" are u64s and SEV is 64-bit only, i.e. they _can't_ be greater\nthan ULONG_MAX.
