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-2026-64187 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-2026-64187/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64187/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-64187","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64187/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-64187","record":{"aliases":["AZL-92853","BELL-CVE-2026-64187","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-64187","GHSA-5fjh-93mh-6xvw","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-64187","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-64187"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel XFS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A crafted XFS log causes a null pointer dereference during recovery, leading to a kernel crash and denial of service.","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":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-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nxfs: fail recovery on a committed log item with no regions\n\nIf the first op of a transaction is a bare transaction header\n(len == sizeof(struct xfs_trans_header)), xlog_recover_add_to_trans()\nadds an item but no region, leaving it on r_itemq with ri_cnt == 0 and\nri_buf == NULL.\n\nThe header can be split across op records, so later ops may still add\nregions; the item is only invalid if the transaction commits with none.\nThe runtime commit path never emits such a transaction, so this only\nhappens on a crafted log.
