{"id":"CVE-2026-64046","summary":"net: tls: prevent chain-after-chain in plain text SG","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: tls: prevent chain-after-chain in plain text SG\n\nSashiko points out that if end = 0 (start != 0) the current\ncode will create a chain link to content type right after\nthe wrap link:\n\n  This would create a chain where the wrap link points directly\n  to another chain link. The scatterlist API sg_next iterator\n  does not recursively resolve consecutive chain links.\n\nmeaning this is illegal input to crypto.\n\nThe wrapping link is unnecessary if end = 0. end is the entry after\nthe last one used so end = 0 means there's nothing pushed after\nthe wrap:\n\n   end         start            i\n    v            v              v\n  [   ]...[   ][ d ][ d ][ d ][ d ][rsv for wrap]\n\nSkip the wrapping in this case.\n\nTLS 1.3 can use the \"wrapping slot\" for it's chaining if end = 0.\nThis avoids the chain-after-chain.\n\nMove the wrap chaining before marking END and chaining off content\ntype, that feels like more logical ordering to me, but should not\nmatter from functional perspective.","modified":"2026-10-17T10:11:58.739070502Z","published":"2026-07-19T15:39:31.129Z","related":["SUSE-SU-2026:4640-1","SUSE-SU-2026:4706-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/64xxx/CVE-2026-64046.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/410351158dfef2d67fea6603680b3a6013c6ed9d"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/49a5faaa471ddcd37b6893970c9916eb836e7c31"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/91359966e247c0244c66d50bbb8e74aefa4321c3"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/929b1548e63ac72e104c07d8ee8cbbeeba2fa89a"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/acdc12b71c9aa4be5dcd2c8062753c6d2033e235"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/af855f4c966afafef74faf8390c7b86568c0d46d"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b9c015ef1a7bf1e8dc67f21c6381f36deb2c3a36"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ff26a0e8377dec07e4a7230db7675bed1b9a6d03"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/64xxx/CVE-2026-64046.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-64046"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"9aaaa56845a06aeabdd597cbe19492dc01f281ec"},{"fixed":"49a5faaa471ddcd37b6893970c9916eb836e7c31"},{"fixed":"91359966e247c0244c66d50bbb8e74aefa4321c3"},{"fixed":"410351158dfef2d67fea6603680b3a6013c6ed9d"},{"fixed":"acdc12b71c9aa4be5dcd2c8062753c6d2033e235"},{"fixed":"929b1548e63ac72e104c07d8ee8cbbeeba2fa89a"},{"fixed":"af855f4c966afafef74faf8390c7b86568c0d46d"},{"fixed":"b9c015ef1a7bf1e8dc67f21c6381f36deb2c3a36"},{"fixed":"ff26a0e8377dec07e4a7230db7675bed1b9a6d03"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"5.4.14"},{"fixed":"5.5"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"d529d6c9f7e3aaeac13c4948f79799ccb825f29d"}]}],"versions":["v5.4.302","v5.4.301","v5.4.300","v5.4.299","v5.4.298","v5.4.297","v5.4.296","v5.4.295","v5.4.294","v5.4.293","v5.4.292","v5.4.291","v5.4.290","v5.4.289","v5.4.288","v5.4.287","v5.4.286","v5.4.285","v5.4.284","v5.4.283","v5.4.282","v5.4.281","v5.4.280","v5.4.279","v5.4.278","v5.4.277","v5.4.276","v5.4.275","v5.4.274","v5.4.273","v5.4.272","v5.4.271","v5.4.270","v5.4.269","v5.4.268","v5.4.267","v5.4.266","v5.4.265","v5.4.264","v5.4.263","v5.4.262","v5.4.261","v5.4.260","v5.4.259","v5.4.258","v5.4.257","v5.4.256","v5.4.255","v5.4.254","v5.4.253","v5.4.252","v5.4.251","v5.4.250","v5.4.249","v5.4.248","v5.4.247","v5.4.246","v5.4.245","v5.4.244","v5.4.243","v5.4.242","v5.4.241","v5.4.240","v5.4.239","v5.4.238","v5.4.237","v5.4.236","v5.4.235","v5.4.234","v5.4.233","v5.4.232","v5.4.231","v5.4.230","v5.4.229","v5.4.228","v5.4.227","v5.4.226","v5.4.225","v5.4.224","v5.4.223","v5.4.222","v5.4.221","v5.4.220","v5.4.219","v5.4.218","v5.4.217","v5.4.216","v5.4.215","v5.4.214","v5.4.213","v5.4.212","v5.4.211","v5.4.210","v5.4.209","v5.4.208","v5.4.207","v5.4.206","v5.4.205","v5.4.204","v5.4.203","v5.4.202","v5.4.201","v5.4.200","v5.4.199","v5.4.198","v5.4.197","v5.4.196","v5.4.195","v5.4.194","v5.4.193","v5.4.192","v5.4.191","v5.4.190","v5.4.189","v5.4.188","v5.4.187","v5.4.186","v5.4.185","v5.4.184","v5.4.183","v5.4.182","v5.4.181","v5.4.180","v5.4.179","v5.4.178","v5.4.177","v5.4.176","v5.4.175","v5.4.174","v5.4.173","v5.4.172","v5.4.171","v5.4.170","v5.4.169","v5.4.168","v5.4.167","v5.4.166","v5.4.165","v5.4.164","v5.4.163","v5.4.162","v5.4.161","v5.4.160","v5.4.159","v5.4.158","v5.4.157","v5.4.156","v5.4.155","v5.4.154","v5.4.153","v5.4.152","v5.4.151","v5.4.150","v5.4.149","v5.4.148","v5.4.147","v5.4.146","v5.4.145","v5.4.144","v5.4.143","v5.4.142","v5.4.141","v5.4.140","v5.4.139","v5.4.138","v5.4.137","v5.4.136","v5.4.135","v5.4.134","v5.4.133","v5.4.132","v5.4.131","v5.4.130","v5.4.129","v5.4.128","v5.4.127","v5.4.126","v5.4.125","v5.4.124","v5.4.123","v5.4.122","v5.4.121","v5.4.120","v5.4.119","v5.4.118","v5.4.117","v5.4.116","v5.4.115","v5.4.114","v5.4.113","v5.4.112","v5.4.111","v5.4.110","v5.4.109","v5.4.108","v5.4.107","v5.4.106","v5.4.105","v5.4.104","v5.4.103","v5.4.102","v5.4.101","v5.4.100","v5.4.99","v5.4.98","v5.4.97","v5.4.96","v5.4.95","v5.4.94","v5.4.93","v5.4.92","v5.4.91","v5.4.90","v5.4.89","v5.4.88","v5.4.87","v5.4.86","v5.4.85","v5.4.84","v5.4.83","v5.4.82","v5.4.81","v5.4.80","v5.4.79","v5.4.78","v5.4.77","v5.4.76","v5.4.75","v5.4.74","v5.4.73","v5.4.72","v5.4.71","v5.4.70","v5.4.69","v5.4.68","v5.4.67","v5.4.66","v5.4.65","v5.4.64","v5.4.63","v5.4.62","v5.4.61","v5.4.60","v5.4.59","v5.4.58","v5.4.57","v5.4.56","v5.4.55","v5.4.54","v5.4.53","v5.4.52"
