Published: May 27, 2026· Updated: May 27, 2026
Official Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ublk: Validate SQE128 flag before accessing the cmd
ublk_ctrl_cmd_dump() accesses (header *)sqe->cmd before
IO_URING_F_SQE128 flag check. This could cause out of boundary memory
access.
Move the SQE128 flag check earlier in ublk_ctrl_uring_cmd() to return
-EINVAL immediately if the flag is not set.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-45962 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
