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-2026-52957 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-2026-52957/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-52957/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-52957","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-52957/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-52957","record":{"aliases":["AZL-90321","BELL-CVE-2026-52957","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-52957","GHSA-7qv9-42rg-qh56","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-52957","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-52957","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-52957","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-52957","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-52957"],"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 null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel's Ceph client allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a crafted OSD map message.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nlibceph: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in decode_choose_args()\n\nA message of type CEPH_MSG_OSD_MAP contains an OSD map that itself\ncontains a CRUSH map. When decoding this CRUSH map in crush_decode(), an\narray of max_buckets CRUSH buckets is decoded, where some indices may\nnot refer to actual buckets and are therefore set to NULL. The received\nCRUSH map may optionally contain choose_args that get decoded in\ndecode_choose_args(). When decoding a crush_choose_arg_map, a series of\nchoose_args for different buckets is decoded, with the bucket_index\nbeing read from the incoming message. It is only checked that the bucket\nindex does not exceed max_buckets, but not that it doesn't point to an\nindex with a NULL bucket. If a (potentially corrupted) message contains\na crush_choose_arg_map including such a bucket_index, a null pointer\ndereference may occur in the subsequent processing when attempting to\naccess the bucket with the given index.\n\nThis patch fixes the issue by extending the affected check.
