CVE-2026-64257

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block SMB client. A remote attacker could exploit a vulnerability where the client improperly handles SMB2 responses containing overlapping data areas. This incorrect processing of malformed network data could lead to a denial of service DoS o...

CVE-2026-64257

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: reject overlapping data areas in SMB2 responses Commit 53b7c271f06b "smb: client: restrict implied bcc0 exemption to responses without data area" restricted the implied bcc0 length exception to responses without a da...

CVE-2026-64257

CVE-2026-64257 affects the Linux kernel SMB2 client logic. The issue arose from overlap handling in __smb2_calc_size(), where clearing data_length could cause an invalid SMB2 response to appear as if it has no data area, allowing an unintended length-exemption path. The fix tracks data area overl...

Overlapping Data in Network Protocols: Bridging OS and NIDS Reassembly Gap

IPv4, IPv6, and TCP have a common mechanism allowing one to split an original data packet into several chunks. Such chunked packets may have overlapping data portions and, OS network stack implementations may reassemble these overlaps differently. A Network Intrusion Detection System NIDS that...

Overlapping Error Correction Codes on Two-Dimensional Structures

The growing demand for highly reliable communication systems drives the research and development of algorithms that identify and correct errors during data transmission and storage. This need becomes even more critical in hard-to-access or sensitive systems, such as those used in space...
