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-2026-74288 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-2026-74288/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-74288/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-74288","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-74288/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-74288","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-74288","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-74288","GHSA-mfph-jxq2-hg99","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-74288"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel's FIB rules dump can cause a refcount warning or crash when accessing dying rules, 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":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: fib_rules: Don't dump dying fib_rule in fib_rules_dump().\n\nrocker_router_fib_event() calls fib_rule_get() during RCU dump.\n\nIf the fib_rule is dying, refcount_inc() will complain about it.\n\nLet's call refcount_inc_not_zero() in fib_rules_dump().","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":"net: fib_rules: Don't dump dying fib_rule in fib_rules_dump().","id":"CVE-2026-74288","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"ipv4: fib: Don't dump dying fib_info in fib_leaf_notify().","id":"CVE-2026-74289"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"sctp: validate embedded address parameter length","id":"CVE-2026-74287"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-08-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-16","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel's FIB rules dump can cause a refcount warning or crash when accessing dying rules, leading to denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-74288/"}
