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-2026-46139 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-2026-46139/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-46139/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-46139","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-46139/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-46139","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-46139","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-46139","GHSA-v8jf-78w3-v9hm","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-46139","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-46139"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel SMB client","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Uninitialized memory in the Linux kernel SMB client may leak heap data, potentially exposing sensitive information to attackers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"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":[{"id":"CWE-908","name":"Use of Uninitialized Resource"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsmb: client: use kzalloc to zero-initialize security descriptor buffer\n\nCommit 62e7dd0a39c2d (\"smb: common: change the data type of num_aces\nto le16\") split struct smb_acl's __le32 num_aces field into __le16\nnum_aces and __le16 reserved.
