CVE-2026-74335

Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-74335)

Summary

Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-74335). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in bpf_task_from_vpid()

bpf_task_from_vpid() looks up a task in the pid namespace of the
current task, via find_task_by_vpid():

find_task_by_vpid(vpid)
find_task_by_pid_ns(vpid, task_active_pid_ns(current))
find_pid_ns(nr, ns) -> idr_find(&ns->idr, nr)

cgroup_skb programs run in softirq, which may interrupt a task that is
itself in do_exit(). Once that task has passed
exit_notify() -> release_task() -> __unhash_process(), its thread_pid is
cleared, so task_active_pid_ns(current) returns NULL and find_pid_ns()
dereferences &NULL->idr:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000050
RIP: 0010:idr_find+0x11/0x30 lib/idr.c:176

Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.

❓ What is the problem

A vulnerability (unclassified) exists in Linux kernel.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Linux kernel.

🔥 Severity

Severity: ?. Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.

🔧 How to fix

Update to the patched release per vendor advisory.

🛡️ Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Audit SBOM/dependencies to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify 
    Audit SBOM/dependencies for affected components.

    資産台帳・SBOM・依存マニフェストで Linux kernel を使っているサービスとバージョンを洗い出す。

  2. 2
    Post-deployment verification verify 
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
