"The version of kernel installed on the remote host is prior to 5.10.269-270.1108. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2KERNEL-5.10-2026-133 advisory.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: add hook transactions for device deletions (CVE-2026-63858)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, skmsg: fix verdict sk_data_ready racing with ktls rx
sk_psock_strp_data_ready() already checks tls_sw_has_ctx_rx() anddefers to psock->saved_data_ready when a
TLS RX context is present,avoiding a conflict with the TLS strparser's ownership of the receivequeue
(commit e91de6afa81c, bpf: Fix running sk_skb program typeswith ktls).
sk_psock_verdict_data_ready() has no equivalent guard. When a socketis inserted into a sockmap
(BPF_SK_SKB_VERDICT) before TLS RX isconfigured, tls_sw_strparser_arm() saves
sk_psock_verdict_data_readyas rx_ctx->saved_data_ready. On data arrival:
tls_data_ready -> tls_strp_data_ready -> tls_rx_msg_ready-> saved_data_ready() =
sk_psock_verdict_data_ready()-> tcp_read_skb() drains sk_receive_queue via __skb_unlink()without calling
tcp_eat_skb(), so copied_seq is not advanced.
tls_strp_msg_load() then finds tcp_inq() >= full_len (stale), callstcp_recv_skb() on the now-empty queue,
hits WARN_ON_ONCE(!first), andreturns with rx_ctx->strp.anchor.frag_list pointing at a psock-
owned(potentially freed) skb. tls_decrypt_sg() subsequently walks thatfrag_list: use-after-free.
Apply the same fix as sk_psock_strp_data_ready(): if a TLS RX contextis present, call
psock->saved_data_ready (sock_def_readable) to wakerecv() waiters and return immediately, leaving the
receive queueuntouched. TLS retains sole ownership of the queue and decrypts therecord normally through
tls_sw_recvmsg(). (CVE-2026-64025)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: iowarrior: fix use-after-free on disconnect race (CVE-2026-64341)
