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-2026-43048 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-2026-43048/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43048/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-43048","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43048/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-43048","record":{"aliases":["AZL-85350","BELL-CVE-2026-43048","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-43048","GHSA-7r6r-545m-fqv3","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-43048","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-43048","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-43048","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-43048","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-43048","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-43048"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A flaw in the Linux kernel HID core allows out-of-bounds memory access via a bogus memset, potentially leading to code execution or system crashes.","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":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"},{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nHID: core: Mitigate potential OOB by removing bogus memset()\n\nThe memset() in hid_report_raw_event() has the good intention of\nclearing out bogus data by zeroing the area from the end of the incoming\ndata string to the assumed end of the buffer.
