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-2026-53131 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-2026-53131/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53131/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-53131","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53131/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-53131","record":{"aliases":["AZL-90636","BELL-CVE-2026-53131","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53131","GHSA-8cg3-6h68-w2cj","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-53131","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-53131","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-53131","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-53131","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-53131","USN-8730-1","USN-8730-2","USN-8730-3","USN-8730-4","USN-8730-5","USN-8730-6","USN-8730-7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel netfilter","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A missing check in Linux kernel netfilter modules allows attackers to trigger a null pointer dereference, causing a system crash.","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":9.4,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetfilter: require Ethernet MAC header before using eth_hdr()\n\n`ip6t_eui64`, `xt_mac`, the `bitmap:ip,mac`, `hash:ip,mac`, and\n`hash:mac` ipset types, and `nf_log_syslog` access `eth_hdr(skb)`\nafter either assuming that the skb is associated with an Ethernet\ndevice or checking only that the `ETH_HLEN` bytes at\n`skb_mac_header(skb)` lie between `skb-\u003ehead` and `skb-\u003edata`.\n\nMake these paths first verify that the skb is associated with an\nEthernet device, that the MAC header was set, and that it spans at\nleast a full Ethernet header before accessing `eth_hdr(skb)`.","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":"netfilter: require Ethernet MAC header before using eth_hdr()","id":"CVE-2026-53131","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"vsock/virtio: fix potential unbounded skb queue","id":"CVE-2026-53132"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"fs/omfs: reject s_sys_blocksize smaller than OMFS_DIR_START","id":"CVE-2026-53130"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-06-25","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":"A missing check in Linux kernel netfilter modules allows attackers to trigger a null pointer dereference, causing a system crash.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53131/"}
