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-2026-53229 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-2026-53229/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53229/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-53229","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53229/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-53229","record":{"aliases":["AZL-90482","BELL-CVE-2026-53229","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53229","GHSA-gvrm-xh5g-w8v6","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-53229","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-53229","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-53229","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-53229","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-53229"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A resource leak in the Linux kernel mlx5e driver allows attackers to cause memory exhaustion and denial of service via XDP transmission failures.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"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-401","name":"Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/mlx5e: xsk: Fix DMA and xdp_frame leak on XDP_TX xmit failure\n\nIn the XSK branch of mlx5e_xmit_xdp_buff(), when sq-\u003exmit_xdp_frame()\nreturns false (e.g. XDPSQ is full), the function returns without\nunmapping the DMA address or freeing the xdp_frame allocated by\nxdp_convert_zc_to_xdp_frame().
