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-2026-53263 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-2026-53263/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53263/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-53263","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53263/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-53263","record":{"aliases":["AZL-90491","BELL-CVE-2026-53263","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53263","GHSA-fq9x-8g2w-4p5r","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-53263","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-53263","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-53263","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-53263","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-53263"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An off-by-one error in Linux kernel 6lowpan multicast compression leaks uninitialized kernel stack memory to the network.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-193","name":"Off-by-one Error"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\n6lowpan: fix off-by-one in multicast context address compression\n\nThe second memcpy in lowpan_iphc_mcast_ctx_addr_compress() uses\n\u0026data[1] as destination and \u0026ipaddr-\u003es6_addr[11] as source, but\nboth should be offset by one: \u0026data[2] and \u0026ipaddr-\u003es6_addr[12]\nrespectively.\n\nThis off-by-one has two consequences:\n1. data[1] is overwritten with s6_addr[11], corrupting the RIID\n   field in the compressed multicast address\n2. data[5] is never written, so uninitialized kernel stack memory\n   is transmitted over the network via lowpan_push_hc_data(),\n   leaking kernel stack contents\n\nThe correct inline data layout must match what the decompression\nfunction lowpan_uncompress_multicast_ctx_daddr() expects:\n  data[0..1] = s6_addr[1..2]  (flags/scope + RIID)\n  data[2..5] = s6_addr[12..15] (group ID)\n\nAlso zero-initialize the data array as a defensive measure against\nsimilar bugs in the future.","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":"6lowpan: fix off-by-one in multicast context address compression","id":"CVE-2026-53263","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"net/sched: act_api: use RCU with deferred freeing for action lifecycle","id":"CVE-2026-53264"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"l2tp: pppol2tp: hold reference to session in pppol2tp_ioctl()","id":"CVE-2026-53262"},"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":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-15","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"An off-by-one error in Linux kernel 6lowpan multicast compression leaks uninitialized kernel stack memory to the network.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53263/"}
