{"id":"CVE-2026-5072","summary":"ptp: Potential Denial of Service via PTP Interval Shift","details":"A bitwise shift vulnerability in Zephyr's PTP subsystem allows a remote attacker to cause undefined behavior and potential system crashes. An attacker sends a crafted PTP_MSG_MANAGEMENT message to set an unvalidated negative log_announce_interval value in the port's data set. When a subsequent PTP_MSG_ANNOUNCE message is processed, port_timer_set_timeout_random computes a timeout as NSEC_PER_SEC \u003e\u003e -log_seconds; if the attacker-supplied value is sufficiently negative (e.g., -127), the shift amount exceeds the 64-bit integer width, triggering undefined behavior in C. This can cause a system crash via a compiler-generated illegal instruction trap on some architectures, or produce an erroneous zero timeout leading to resource starvation loops or other logical errors.","aliases":["GHSA-3v98-458v-388r"],"modified":"2026-07-10T03:53:44.629199141Z","published":"2026-05-22T07:00:36.025Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"zephyr","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/5xxx/CVE-2026-5072.json"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/5xxx/CVE-2026-5072.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/security/advisories/GHSA-3v98-458v-388r"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-5072"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"3568e1b6d5cdd51a6b964a2a1d6d29200fea2056"}],"database_specific":{"source":"AFFECTED_FIELD","extracted_events":[{"introduced":"*"},{"last_affected":"4.3"}]}}],"versions":["v4.3.0","v4.3.0-rc3","v4.3.0-rc2","v4.3.0-rc1","v4.2.0","v4.2.0-rc3","v4.2.0-rc2","v4.2.0-rc1","v4.1.0","v4.1.0-rc3","v4.1.0-rc2","v4.1.0-rc1","v4.0.0","v4.0.0-rc3","v4.0.0-rc2","v4.0.0-rc1","v3.7.0","v3.7.0-rc3","v3.7.0-rc2","v3.7.0-rc1","v3.6.0","v3.6.0-rc3","v3.6.0-rc2","v3.6.0-rc1","zephyr-v3.5.0","v3.5.0","v3.5.0-rc3","v3.5.0-rc2","v3.5.0-rc1","zephyr-v3.4.0","v3.4.0","v3.4.0-rc3","v3.4.0-rc2","v3.4.0-rc1","zephyr-v3.3.0","v3.3.0","v3.3.0-rc3","v3.3.0-rc2","v3.3.0-rc1","zephyr-v3.2.0","v3.2.0","v3.2.0-rc3","v3.2.0-rc2","v3.2.0-rc1","zephyr-v3.1.0","v3.1.0","v3.1.0-rc3","v3.1.0-rc2","v3.1.0-rc1","zephyr-v3.0.0","v3.0.0","v3.0.0-rc3","v3.0.0-rc2","v3.0.0-rc1","v2.7.99","v2.7.0-rc3","v2.7.0-rc2","v2.7.0-rc1","zephyr-v2.6.0","v2.6.0","v2.6.0-rc3","v2.6.0-rc2","v2.6.0-rc1","zephyr-v2.5.0","v2.5.0","v2.5.0-rc4","v2.5.0-rc3","v2.5.0-rc2","v2.5.0-rc1","zephyr-v2.4.0","v2.4.0","v2.4.0-rc3","v2.4.0-rc2","v2.4.0-rc1","zephyr-v2.3.0","v2.3.0","v2.3.0-rc2","v2.3.0-rc1","zephyr-v2.1.0","v2.1.0","zephyr-v2.2.0","v2.2.0","v2.2.0-rc3","v2.2.0-rc2","v2.2.0-rc1","v2.1.0-rc3","v2.1.0-rc2","v2.1.0-rc1","zephyr-v2.0.0","v2.0.0","v2.0.0-rc3","v2.0.0-rc2","v2.0.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.14.0","v1.14.0","v1.14.0-rc3","v1.14.0-rc2","v1.14.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.13.0","v1.13.0","v1.13.0-rc3","v1.13.0-rc2","v1.13.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.12.0","v1.12.0","v1.12.0-rc3","v1.12.0-rc2","v1.12.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.11.0","v1.11.0","v1.11.0-rc3","v1.11.0-rc2","v1.11.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.10.0","v1.10.0","v1.10.0-rc3","v1.10.0-rc2","v1.10.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.9.0","v1.9.0","v1.9.0-rc4","v1.9.0-rc3","v1.9.0-rc2","v1.9.0-rc1","v1.8.99","zephyr-v1.5.0","v1.5.0","v1.7.99","v1.6.99","v1.5.0-rc4","v1.5.0-rc3","v1.5.0-rc2","v1.5.0-rc1","v1.5.0-rc0","zephyr-v1.4.0","v1.4.0","v1.4.0-rc3","v1.4.0-rc2","v1.4.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.3.0","v1.3.0","v1.3.0-rc2","v1.3.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.2.0","v1.2.0","v1.2.0-rc2","v1.2.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.1.0","v1.1.0","v1.1.0-rc1","zephyr-v1.0.0","v1.0.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-5072.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
