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-2026-43407 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-2026-43407/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43407/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-43407","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43407/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-43407","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-43407","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-43407","GHSA-g5m7-8jmr-xx94","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-43407","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-43407","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-43407","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-43407"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An integer overflow in the Linux kernel's libceph module allows out-of-bounds memory access, potentially leading to crashes or code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"},{"id":"CWE-190","name":"Integer Overflow or Wraparound"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nlibceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()\n\nThis patch fixes an out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()\nthat can be triggered by a message of type CEPH_MSG_AUTH_REPLY. In\nceph_handle_auth_reply(), the value of the payload_len field of such a\nmessage is stored in a variable of type int. A value greater than\nINT_MAX leads to an integer overflow and is interpreted as a negative\nvalue. This leads to decrementing the pointer address by this value and\nsubsequently accessing it because ceph_decode_need() only checks that\nthe memory access does not exceed the end address of the allocation.\n\nThis patch fixes the issue by changing the data type of payload_len to\nu32. Additionally, the data type of result_msg_len is changed to u32,\nas it is also a variable holding a non-negative length.\n\nAlso, an additional layer of sanity checks is introduced, ensuring that\ndirectly after reading it from the message, payload_len and\nresult_msg_len are not greater than the overall segment length.\n\nBUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\nRead of size 4 at addr ffff88811404df14 by task kworker/20:1/262\n\nCPU: 20 UID: 0 PID: 262 Comm: kworker/20:1 Not tainted 6.19.2 #5 PREEMPT(voluntary)\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014\nWorkqueue: ceph-msgr ceph_con_workfn [libceph]\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n dump_stack_lvl+0x76/0xa0\n print_report+0xd1/0x620\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n ? kasan_complete_mode_report_info+0x72/0x210\n kasan_report+0xe7/0x130\n ? ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n ? ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n __asan_report_load_n_noabort+0xf/0x20\n ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n mon_dispatch+0x973/0x23d0 [libceph]\n ? apparmor_socket_recvmsg+0x6b/0xa0\n ? __pfx_mon_dispatch+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30i\n ? mutex_unlock+0x7f/0xd0\n ? __pfx_mutex_unlock+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_do_recvmsg+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ceph_con_process_message+0x1f1/0x650 [libceph]\n process_message+0x1e/0x450 [libceph]\n ceph_con_v2_try_read+0x2e48/0x6c80 [libceph]\n ? __pfx_ceph_con_v2_try_read+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ? save_fpregs_to_fpstate+0xb0/0x230\n ? raw_spin_rq_unlock+0x17/0xa0\n ? finish_task_switch.isra.0+0x13b/0x760\n ? __switch_to+0x385/0xda0\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n ? mutex_lock+0x8d/0xe0\n ? __pfx_mutex_lock+0x10/0x10\n ceph_con_workfn+0x248/0x10c0 [libceph]\n process_one_work+0x629/0xf80\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n worker_thread+0x87f/0x1570\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_try_to_wake_up+0x10/0x10\n ? kasan_print_address_stack_frame+0x1f7/0x280\n ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10\n kthread+0x396/0x830\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irq+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n ? recalc_sigpending+0x180/0x210\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork+0x3f7/0x610\n ? __pfx_ret_from_fork+0x10/0x10\n ? __switch_to+0x385/0xda0\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\n\n[ idryomov: replace if statements with ceph_decode_need() for\n  payload_len and result_msg_len ]","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":"libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()","id":"CVE-2026-43407","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"integer_overflow","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"ceph: add a bunch of missing ceph_path_info initializers","id":"CVE-2026-43408"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"libceph: prevent potential out-of-bounds reads in process_message_header()","id":"CVE-2026-43406"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-05-08","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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"An integer overflow in the Linux kernel's libceph module allows out-of-bounds memory access, potentially leading to crashes or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43407/"}
