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-2026-68336 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-2026-68336/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68336/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-68336","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68336/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-68336","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-68336","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-68336","GHSA-gmpf-gmwm-hxhp","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-68336"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A NULL pointer dereference in the Linux kernel bonding driver causes a system crash when IPv6 is disabled, leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbonding: fix devconf_all NULL dereference when IPv6 is disabled\n\nWhen booting with the 'ipv6.disable=1' parameter, the devconf_all is\nnever initialized because inet6_init() exits before addrconf_init() is\ncalled which initializes it. bond_send_validate(), however, will still\ncall bond_ns_send_all() even ipv6 is indeed disabled.
