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-2026-64490 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. 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-2026-64490/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64490/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-64490","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64490/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-64490","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-64490","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-64490","GHSA-4qj6-j88p-jqg9","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-64490","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-64490"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A malicious or buggy virtio-sound device can trigger out-of-bounds memory access in the Linux kernel, potentially leading to code execution or system crashes.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nALSA: virtio: Validate control metadata from the device\n\nvirtio-snd control handling trusts the device-provided control type and\nvalue count returned by the device.\n\nThat metadata is then used directly to index g_v2a_type_map[] in\nvirtsnd_kctl_info(), and to size loops and memcpy() operations in\nvirtsnd_kctl_get() and virtsnd_kctl_put() against fixed-size\nvirtio_snd_ctl_value and snd_ctl_elem_value arrays.\n\nA buggy or malicious device can therefore trigger out-of-bounds access by\nadvertising an invalid control type or an oversized value count.\n\nValidate control type and count once in virtsnd_kctl_parse_cfg(), before\nquerying enumerated items or exposing the control to ALSA.","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":"ALSA: virtio: Validate control metadata from the device","id":"CVE-2026-64490","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"ALSA: usx2y: us144mkii: fix work UAF on disconnect","id":"CVE-2026-64491"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ALSA: ymfpci: check snd_ctl_new1() return value","id":"CVE-2026-64489"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-07-25","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"A malicious or buggy virtio-sound device can trigger out-of-bounds memory access in the Linux kernel, potentially leading to code execution or system crashes.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-64490/"}
