{"id":"AZL-85830","summary":"CVE-2026-43197 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetconsole: avoid OOB reads, msg is not nul-terminated\n\nmsg passed to netconsole from the console subsystem is not guaranteed\nto be nul-terminated. Before recent\ncommit 7eab73b18630 (\"netconsole: convert to NBCON console infrastructure\")\nthe message would be placed in printk_shared_pbufs, a static global\nbuffer, so KASAN had harder time catching OOB accesses.
