Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-80652)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-80652). 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:
crypto: ccp - Treat zero-length cert chain as query for blob lengths
When handling a PDH export, treat a zero-length userspace cert chain buffer
as a request to query the length of the relevant blobs. Failure to account
for the zero-length buffer trips a BUG_ON() when running with
CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL=y due to trying to get the physical address of the
ZERO_SIZE_PTR (returned by kzalloc() on the bogus allocation).
