{"id":"CVE-2026-93127","aliases":[],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-93127","summary":"bpf: Drop scalar id on sign-extending narrowing stack fills","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbpf: Drop scalar id on sign-extending narrowing stack fills\n\nWhen a spilled scalar is filled back with a sign-extending narrowing load\n(BPF_MEMSX), check_stack_read_fixed_off() copies the spilled register\nincluding its scalar id, but coerce_reg_to_size_sx() then sign-extends the\nfilled register's value. If the same slot is also filled with a plain\nzero-extending load (BPF_MEM), both destination registers share the id yet\nhold different values. A later 'if <zext-reg> == const' then refines the\nsign-extended register through sync_linked_regs() to a value it does not\nhave at runtime (e.g. the verifier believes 0x80000000 while the register\nis 0xffffffff80000000), which can be turned into an out-of-bounds access.\n\nDrop the shared scalar id at the sign-extension site in check_mem_access()\nwhen sign extension actually changes the value, mirroring the BPF_MOVSX\nhandling in check_alu_op() (no_sext = reg_umax < 2^(size*8-1)).","published":"2026-09-17T16:11:31.253Z","modified":"2026-09-19T03:47:31.500479052Z","cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Linux","name":"Kernel","fixedVersion":"7.2.6"}],"fix":null,"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2cb5f4ca695ebe552647e5ba4aad6934d6a43bae"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f3614622dc41f3dd99bb4f691da253814e4e6cae"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/93xxx/CVE-2026-93127.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-93127"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-09-19T03:47:31.500479052Z"}}
