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-2026-53370 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-2026-53370/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53370/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-53370","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53370/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-53370","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-53370","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53370","GHSA-6xq9-44c7-g88v","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-53370"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["other"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel perf","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Incomplete validation of Intel ACR masks in the Linux kernel perf subsystem could lead to incorrect hardware configuration or potential instability.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"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":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nperf/x86/intel: Improve validation and configuration of ACR masks\n\nCurrently there are several issues on the user space ACR mask validation\nand configuration.\n- The validation for user space ACR mask (attr.config2) is incomplete,\n  e.g., the ACR mask could include the index which belongs to another\n  ACR events group, but it's not validated.\n- An early return on an invalid ACR mask caused all subsequent ACR groups\n  to be skipped.\n- The stale hardware ACR mask (hw.config1) is not cleared before setting\n  new hardware ACR mask.\n\nThe following changes address all of the above issues.\n- Figure out the event index group of an ACR group. Any bits in the\n  user-space mask not present in the index group are now dropped.\n- Instead of an early return on invalid bits, drop only the invalid\n  portions and continue iterating through all ACR events to ensure full\n  configuration.\n- Explicitly clear the stale hardware ACR mask for each event prior to\n  writing the new configuration.\n\nBesides, a non-leader event member of ACR group could be disabled in\ntheory. This could cause bit-shifting errors in the acr_mask of remaining\ngroup members. But since ACR sampling requires all events to be active,\nthis should not be a big concern in real use case.
