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-2026-80843 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-2026-80843/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-80843/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-80843","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-80843/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-80843","record":{"aliases":["AZL-99422","BELL-CVE-2026-80843","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-80843","GHSA-7vv6-3xqc-jr7v","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-80843"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A memory leak in the Linux kernel's xfrm subsystem allows attackers to cause denial of service or potentially read sensitive memory via crafted network packets.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"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\nxfrm: fix xfrm_state_construct() auth-trunc leak\n\nattach_auth_trunc() can allocate x-\u003eaalg while leaving\nx-\u003eprops.aalgo at zero when the selected auth algorithm has no\nsadb_alg_id.
