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-2026-72499 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-2026-72499/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72499/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-72499","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72499/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-72499","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-72499","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-72499","GHSA-2899-vqg2-g66r","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-72499"],"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 driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free in the Linux kernel RDMA driver allows attackers to cause denial of service or execute code via race conditions during CQ teardown.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nRDMA/bnxt_re: Free CQ toggle page after firmware teardown\n\nFree the toggle page only after firmware teardown completes so that\nan NQ interrupt arriving during bnxt_qplib_destroy_cq() won't write\nthe toggle value to an already-freed page.
