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-2026-80958 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-2026-80958/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-80958/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-80958","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-80958/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-80958","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-80958","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-80958","GHSA-hh69-ghmv-95j7","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-80958"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can read sensitive kernel memory by triggering a buffer over-read in the dm-pcache module's tail kset handling.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndm-pcache: clamp the tail kset read to the segment data region\n\nThe tail-kset read in cache_replay(), the writeback worker and the GC\nworker bounds its length by PCACHE_SEG_SIZE - seg_off, the raw segment\nsize rather than the data region.
