An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-80636 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-2026-80636/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-80636/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-80636","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-80636/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-80636","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-80636","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-80636","GHSA-xc67-x6qc-f6hf","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-80636"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel netfilter conntrack subsystem allows remote attackers to cause a system crash.","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\nnetfilter: conntrack: revert ct extension genid infrastructure\n\nThis infrastructure is not used anymore after moving ct timeout and\nhelper to use datapath refcount to track object use.\n\nRevert commit c56716c69ce1 (\"netfilter: extensions: introduce extension\ngenid count\") this patch disables all ct extensions (leading to NULL)\nfor unconfirmed conntracks, when this is only targeted at ct helper and\nct timeout.
