When assoclen is shorter than\nthe minimum expected length, crypto_authenc_esn_decrypt() can advance past\nthe end of the destination scatterlist and trigger a NULL pointer dereference\nin scatterwalk_map_and_copy(), leading to a kernel panic (DoS).\n\nAdd a minimum AAD length check to fail fast on invalid inputs.","modified":"2026-08-28T17:48:01.882019433Z","published":"2026-02-04T17:16:16Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-23060"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-23060"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.126.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-77115.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
