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-2026-53188 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-2026-53188/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53188/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-53188","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53188/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-53188","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-53188","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53188","GHSA-4rj2-pr7f-cmpg","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-53188"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel RDMA","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can masquerade as RDMA userspace clients by spoofing device file descriptors, bypassing authentication checks in the Linux kernel.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-285","name":"Improper Authorization"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nRDMA/core: Validate the passed in fops for ib_get_ucaps()\n\nSashiko pointed out it is not safe to rely only on the devt because\nchar/block alias so if the user finds a block device with the same dev_t\nit can masquerade as a ucap cdev fd.\n\nTest the f_ops to only accept authentic cdevs.","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":"RDMA/core: Validate the passed in fops for ib_get_ucaps()","id":"CVE-2026-53188","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"mm/huge_memory: update file PMD counter before folio_put()","id":"CVE-2026-53189"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"RDMA/core: Validate cpu_id against nr_cpu_ids in DMAH alloc","id":"CVE-2026-53187"},"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"Attackers can masquerade as RDMA userspace clients by spoofing device file descriptors, bypassing authentication checks in the Linux kernel.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53188/"}
