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-2026-31637 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-2026-31637/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-31637/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-31637","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-31637/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-31637","record":{"aliases":["AZL-83696","BELL-CVE-2026-31637","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-31637","GHSA-45qq-4p94-jp2v","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-31637","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-31637","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-31637","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-31637","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-31637","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-31637"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A flaw in the Linux kernel's rxrpc module allows attackers to cause a denial of service by sending malformed tickets that bypass decryption checks.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-754","name":"Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nrxrpc: reject undecryptable rxkad response tickets\n\nrxkad_decrypt_ticket() decrypts the RXKAD response ticket and then\nparses the buffer as plaintext without checking whether\ncrypto_skcipher_decrypt() succeeded.\n\nA malformed RESPONSE can therefore use a non-block-aligned ticket\nlength, make the decrypt operation fail, and still drive the ticket\nparser with attacker-controlled bytes.\n\nCheck the decrypt result and abort the connection with RXKADBADTICKET\nwhen ticket decryption fails.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"rxrpc: reject undecryptable rxkad response tickets","id":"CVE-2026-31637","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"other","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"rxrpc: Only put the call ref if one was acquired","id":"CVE-2026-31638"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"rxrpc: fix RESPONSE authenticator parser OOB read","id":"CVE-2026-31636"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-04-24","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A flaw in the Linux kernel's rxrpc module allows attackers to cause a denial of service by sending malformed tickets that bypass decryption checks.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-31637/"}
