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-2026-98057 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-2026-98057/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98057/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-98057","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98057/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-98057","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-98057","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-98057","GHSA-rx4w-f847-mv59","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-98057"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A missing validation check in the Linux kernel's persistent ring buffer allows memory corruption, potentially leading to system crashes or arbitrary code execution.","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\nring-buffer: Add checking nr_subbufs to persistent ring buffer validation\n\nSashiko reported that the code was using meta-\u003enr_subbufs without making\nsure that it matched the nr_pages + 1 on data that was assuming the two\nwere the same.\n\nAdd a check to the persistent ring buffer validation code to make sure\nthat the saved nr_subbufs matches what we expect.","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":"ring-buffer: Add checking nr_subbufs to persistent ring buffer validation","id":"CVE-2026-98057","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"bpf: Mark syscall helpers as sleepable","id":"CVE-2026-98058"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"nvme: remove stale namespaces by NSID range during scan","id":"CVE-2026-98056"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-09-25","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A missing validation check in the Linux kernel's persistent ring buffer allows memory corruption, potentially leading to system crashes or arbitrary code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-98057/"}
