Medium [CVE-2026-40017] Denial of Service via crafted IMAP message headers
An attacker that can send mail to a user can craft a message header whose values are chosen to collide in an internal hash table, which makes the IMAP THREAD command consume CPU disproportionate to the size of the message. This is a separate issue from CVE-2026-40014 and is not addressed by that fix. Whenever a mail client issues a THREAD command on the affected mailbox, this can cause degradation or denial of service for IMAP. Monitor system for abnormal CPU usage, kill the offending process and remove the offending message from the affected mailbox. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. This manipulation forces the IMAP THREAD command to consume excessive CPU resources, leading to degradation or a complete denial of service for the IMAP server. This can disrupt email services for affected users. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-770. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-40015] Denial of Service via malformed IMAP commands in imap-hibernate service
An attacker that has valid credentials can open many connections to the imap-hibernate service and send invalid commands, which can intermittently cause an out-of-bounds read and crash the process. The crash interrupts hibernated IMAP sessions handled by the affected process, which can cause degradation of service for IMAP. Disable IMAP hibernation. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 4.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L). Weakness: CWE-125. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-40014] Denial of Service via crafted IMAP THREAD command
An attacker that can send mail to a user can craft a message header that makes the IMAP THREAD command consume CPU disproportionate to the size of the message. When a mail client issues a THREAD command on the affected mailbox, this can cause degradation or denial of service for IMAP. Monitor system for abnormal CPU usage, kill the offending process and remove the offending message from the affected mailbox. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-606. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-40013] Denial of Service in ManageSieve service via crafted Sieve script
An attacker that has valid credentials can submit a Sieve script containing an extreme numeric literal, which causes an out-of-bounds write when the ManageSieve service compiles the script. This causes memory corruption and an observed crash of the ManageSieve process, resulting in denial of service for script management. This might be able to be used for remote code execution. Disable the ManageSieve service if users do not need remote Sieve script management. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. This action triggers an out-of-bounds write during script compilation, leading to memory corruption and a crash of the ManageSieve process. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 4.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L). Weakness: CWE-787. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-33607] Denial of Service via IMAP LIST command
An attacker that has valid credentials can use IMAP LIST command to consume CPU. This can cause degradation or denial of service for IMAP. Monitor system for abnormal CPU usage and kill the offending process and lock account. Alternatively install fixed version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 4.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L). Weakness: CWE-606. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-33606] Unauthorized mailbox modification via dsync command injection
Mail content stored by a user can be crafted so that it is interpreted as dsync protocol commands when an administrator later runs dsync with the stream protocol, for example during a migration. Injected commands can modify mailbox state on the destination during migration or replication, including internal mailbox attributes that a user should not be able to set directly. It can also cause dsync errors. Avoid running dsync with the stream protocol on mailboxes with untrusted content. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. This could lead to unauthorized data manipulation and potentially cause service disruptions. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.4 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L). Weakness: CWE-78. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-33604] SMTP smuggling vulnerability allows spoofed email injection
An attacker that can get Dovecot to relay a message, for example through Sieve redirect or submission relay, can use a crafted line ending in the message body to bypass the outbound protection that prevents message content from being interpreted as SMTP commands. A downstream mail server that hasn't yet fixed the SMTP smuggling vulnerability can be tricked into treating part of the message body as new SMTP commands, allowing injection of spoofed email. This is the same vulnerability class as CVE-2023-51764 and CVE-2023-51766. Where you control the receiving mail servers, ensure they reject bare carriage returns in message data. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. A remote attacker can exploit this by crafting a message with a specific line ending. If Dovecot relays this message, it can bypass security protections, allowing the attacker to inject spoofed email into a vulnerable downstream mail server. This vulnerability is related to SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) smuggling. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.9 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N). Weakness: CWE-93. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.
Medium [CVE-2026-18393] Ffmpeg: ffmpeg: heap buffer overflow in tdsc_load_cursor via cur_fmt_mono cursor
A flaw was found in FFmpeg. The tdsc_load_cursor() function writes beyond the bounds of a heap-allocated buffer when processing crafted TDSC cursor data. A remote attacker could exploit this by supplying a specially crafted video file, potentially leading to a denial of service or arbitrary code execution. The ffmpeg package is not shipped in base Red Hat Enterprise Linux. It is available through EPEL, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI, and as a bundled dependency in Red Hat OpenShift AI container images. The vulnerable code resides in libavcodec (tdsc.c), which is compiled and shipped in all FFmpeg builds across these products. The TDSC decoder is present since FFmpeg's initial inclusion of the codec in 2015. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.4 (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H). Weakness: CWE-787. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI (RHEL AI) 3; Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI). Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE.
Medium [CVE-2026-80612] Drop skb metadata before LWT encapsulation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: lwtunnel: Drop skb metadata before LWT encapsulation skb metadata is meant for passing information between XDP and TC. It lives in the skb headroom, immediately before skb->data. LWT programs cannot access the __sk_buff->data_meta pseudo-pointer to metadata. However, LWT encapsulation prepends outer headers, moving skb->data back over the headroom where the metadata sits. On an RX-originated (forwarded) packet that still carries XDP metadata this goes wrong in two different ways, depending on the encap type: 1. Non-BPF LWT encaps (mpls, seg6, ioam6...) call skb_push()/skb_pull() and silently overwrite the metadata that sits in the headroom. 2) BPF LWT xmit calls bpf_skb_change_head(), which uses skb_data_move(). That helper expects metadata immediately before skb->data.
Medium [CVE-2026-80673] bound the look-ahead attribute-list entry in ntfs_external_attr_find
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: bound the look-ahead attribute-list entry in ntfs_external_attr_find() When resolving an attribute lookup with a non-zero @lowest_vcn, ntfs_external_attr_find() peeks at the next $ATTRIBUTE_LIST entry to decide whether to keep searching, but bounds that not-yet-validated entry only with "(u8 *)next_al_entry + 6 lowest_vcn (an __le64 at offset 8) and the name at next_al_entry->name_offset, both of which can lie past al_end -- the exact end of the kvmalloc'd attribute-list buffer (allocated at the on-disk attr_list_size, no rounding). A crafted on-disk $ATTRIBUTE_LIST whose last entry sits a few bytes before al_end therefore yields a slab out-of-bounds read when the inode is read. Validate the look-ahead entry with ntfs_attr_list_entry_is_valid() (added in patch 1/3) before dereferencing lowest_vcn and the name, so the same fixed-header, length and name bounds the main attribute-list walk uses now guard this read too. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NTFS file system driver. An attacker can craft a malicious on-disk attribute list that, when processed, causes an out-of-bounds read. This occurs because a look-ahead entry in the attribute list is not properly validated, allowing data to be read beyond the allocated buffer. This vulnerability can lead to information disclosure when an inode is read.
Medium [CVE-2026-80661] Do not dereference pointers in TP_printk
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ufs: core: tracing: Do not dereference pointers in TP_printk() The trace events in drivers/ufs/core/ufs_trace.h were converted to take a pointer to the hba structure as an argument for the tracepoint and then in TP_printk() the printing of the dev_name from the ring buffer was converted to using the dev dereferenced pointer from the hba saved pointer. This is not allowed as the TP_printk() is executed at the time the trace event is read from /sys/kernel/tracing/trace file. That can happen literally, seconds, minutes, hours, weeks, days, or even months later! There is no guarantee that the hba pointer will still exist by the time it is dereferenced when the "trace" file is read. Instead, save the device name from the hba pointer at the time the tracepoint is called and place it into the ring buffer event. Then the TP_printk() can read the name directly from the ring buffer and remove the possibility that it will read a freed pointer and crash the kernel. This was detected when testing the trace event code that looks for TP_printk() parameters doing illegal derferences[1] [1] The system attempts to access a memory location that has already been freed when processing trace events, specifically within the `TP_printk()` function.
Medium [CVE-2026-80677] driver core: use READ_ONCE for dev->driver in dev_has_sync_state
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: driver core: use READ_ONCE() for dev->driver in dev_has_sync_state() dev_has_sync_state() reads dev->driver twice without holding device_lock() -- once for the NULL check and once to dereference ->sync_state. Some callers only hold device_links_write_lock, which doesn't prevent a concurrent unbind from clearing dev->driver via device_unbind_cleanup(). Fix it by reading dev->driver exactly once with READ_ONCE(), pairing with the WRITE_ONCE() in device_set_driver(). The `dev_has_sync_state()` function reads the `dev->driver` pointer multiple times without proper synchronization. This allows a concurrent unbind operation to clear the `dev->driver` pointer between reads. Such a race condition could lead to a null pointer dereference, potentially causing system instability or a denial of service. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-476. Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
Medium [CVE-2026-80697] ensure valid f_path for page cache sharing
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: erofs: ensure valid f_path for page cache sharing Previously, backing files for page cache sharing were set up with f_path left as NULL (only f_inode was valid). It worked, but a recent mincore fix relies on f_path.mnt and crashes (found by "erofs/028" on 7.2-rc4): BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 3 UID: 0 PID: 675528 Comm: fincore Not tainted 7.2.0-rc4-00002-g[]-dirty #1 PREEMPT(lazy) Hardware name: Red Hat KVM, BIOS 1.16.0-4.al8 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:__do_sys_mincore+0xc0/0x2c0... Specify valid paths using valid disconnected dentries together with erofs_ishare_mnt instead of leaving f_path empty, so they are more like real backing files in a pseudo filesystem and standard backing_file_open() can be used directly. An invalid `f_path` for page cache sharing could lead to a null pointer dereference when a `mincore` operation is performed. This vulnerability could allow a local attacker to cause a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-476.
Medium [CVE-2026-80664] reject unsupported target families
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: xt_nat: reject unsupported target families xt_nat SNAT and DNAT target handlers assume IP-family conntrack state is present and can dereference a NULL pointer when instantiated from an unsupported family through nft_compat. A bridge-family compat rule can therefore trigger a NULL-dereference in nf_nat_setup_info(). Reject non-IP families in xt_nat_checkentry() so unsupported targets cannot be installed. Keep NFPROTO_INET allowed for valid inet NAT compat users and leave the runtime fast path unchanged. [ The crash was fixed via 9dbba7e694ec ("netfilter: nft_compat: ebtables emulation must reject non-bridge targets"), so this patch is no longer critical. Nevertheless, NAT is only relevant for ipv4/ipv6, so this extra family check is a good idea in any case. ] These handlers incorrectly assume the presence of an IP-family connection tracking state. A local attacker, by instantiating these handlers from an unsupported family, such as a bridge-family, through nft_compat, could trigger a NULL pointer dereference. This vulnerability could lead to a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-476.
Medium [CVE-2026-80689] Add NULL check for mmio_trace_array in logging functions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing/mmiotrace: Add NULL check for mmio_trace_array in logging functions mmio_trace_rw() and mmio_trace_mapping() retrieve mmio_trace_array into tr and pass it to __trace_mmiotrace_rw() and __trace_mmiotrace_map(). If these functions are invoked while mmio_trace_array is NULL (e.g. before initialization or after disabled), accessing tr->array_buffer.buffer will result in a NULL pointer dereference crash. When the `mmio_trace_array` is not initialized or is disabled, invoking `mmio_trace_rw()` or `mmio_trace_mapping()` can lead to a NULL pointer dereference. This can cause a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). Red Hat severity: Low — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-476. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: kernel-rt.
Medium [CVE-2026-80694] pass eth to mtk_handle_irq_rx in poll_controller
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: pass eth to mtk_handle_irq_rx in poll_controller mtk_handle_irq_rx expects a struct mtk_eth * (matching the request_irq cookie), but mtk_poll_controller incorrectly passed the net_device *. Calling ndo_poll_controller with CONFIG_NET_POLL_CONTROLLER enabled would then crash. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-843. Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
Medium [CVE-2026-80618] Avoid double-unpin of DOORBELL/MMIO BOs on free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdkfd: Avoid double-unpin of DOORBELL/MMIO BOs on free amdgpu_amdkfd_gpuvm_free_memory_of_gpu() unpinned DOORBELL and MMIO remap BOs (which are pinned at allocation time) before checking whether the BO is still mapped to the GPU. When the BO is still mapped, the function returns -EBUSY and leaves the BO alive, but it has already been unpinned. The BO is then unpinned again when it is finally freed during process teardown, triggering a ttm_bo_unpin() underflow warning: WARNING: CPU: 18 PID: 15066 at ttm/ttm_bo.c:650 amdttm_bo_unpin+0x6d/0x80 [amdttm] Workqueue: kfd_process_wq kfd_process_wq_release [amdgpu] RIP: 0010:amdttm_bo_unpin+0x6d/0x80 [amdttm] Call Trace: amdgpu_bo_unpin+0x1a/0x90 [amdgpu] amdgpu_amdkfd_gpuvm_unpin_bo+0x31/0xb0 [amdgpu] amdgpu_amdkfd_gpuvm_free_memory_of_gpu+0x3bf/0x460 [amdgpu] kfd_process_free_outstanding_kfd_bos+0xd4/0x170 [amdgpu] kfd_process_wq_release+0x109/0x1b0 [amdgpu] process_one_work+0x1e2/0x3b0 worker_thread+0x50/0x3a0 kthread+0xdd/0x100 ret_from_fork+0x29/0x50 Move the unpin after the mapped_to_gpu_memory check so it only happens once we are committed to freeing the BO. (cherry picked from commit 927c5b2defb9b09856444d94bebfd056a002bd75) This vulnerability occurs when the driver attempts to unpin a memory buffer object (BO) twice during memory deallocation.
Medium [CVE-2026-80599] ensure accessible eth_hdr proto field
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: batman-adv: dat: ensure accessible eth_hdr proto field When batadv_get_vid() accesses the proto field of the ethernet header, it is not checking if the data itself is accessible. The caller is responsible for it. But in contrast to other call sites, batadv_dat_get_vid() and its caller didn't make sure this is true. This could have caused an out-of-bounds access. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's batman-adv (Better Approach To Mobile Ad-hoc Networking - Advanced) module. This occurs because the function fails to verify the accessibility of the ethernet header's protocol field, potentially leading to system instability or information disclosure. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-125. Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
Medium [CVE-2026-80629] Fix size of entry2cntr_map
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-af: npc: Fix size of entry2cntr_map KASAN prints below splat. This is caused by allocating counter for reserved mcam entry for cpt 2nd pass entry. But mcam->entry2cntr_map is not allocated for reserved entries.

Medium [CVE-2026-80667] LAG, MPESW, Fix missing complete on devcom error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5: LAG, MPESW, Fix missing complete() on devcom error mlx5_mpesw_work() returned without calling complete() when mlx5_lag_get_devcom_comp() returned NULL. A caller that queued the work and waited on mpesww->comp would block indefinitely. Funnel the early-return path through a new "complete" label so the waiter is always woken. A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Mellanox (mlx5) network driver, specifically within the Multi-Port Ethernet Switch (MPESW) work handling for Link Aggregation Groups (LAG). When the `mlx5_lag_get_devcom_comp()` function returns a null value, the `mlx5_mpesw_work()` function fails to call `complete()`. This oversight can cause a process waiting for the work to finish to block indefinitely, leading to a denial of service (DoS) for the affected system. Red Hat severity: Low — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-833. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: kernel-rt.
