RHSA-2026:77218 PUBLISHED CVSS 7.300000190734863 HIGH

Record from redhat · Published October 7, 2026

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block (SMB) client. A remote, untrusted server could send a specially crafted symlink error response, leading to an out-of-bounds read vulnerability. This could result in the disclosure of sensitive information from the kernel's memory to a local user through the readlink(2) system call.
