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-2026-53090 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-2026-53090/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53090/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-53090","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53090/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-53090","record":{"aliases":["AZL-90374","BELL-CVE-2026-53090","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53090","GHSA-h443-hx93-m7qc","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-53090","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-53090","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-53090","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-53090","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-53090","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-53090"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["other"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel BPF","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"The Linux kernel BPF verifier failed to simulate abnormal exit paths for packet load instructions in subprograms, potentially leading to incorrect program validation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-253","name":"Incorrect Check of Function Return Value"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbpf: Fix ld_{abs,ind} failure path analysis in subprogs\n\nUsage of ld_{abs,ind} instructions got extended into subprogs some time\nago via commit 09b28d76eac4 (\"bpf: Add abnormal return checks.\").
