CVE-2026-90052

CVSS 7.8 no coverage
View on NVD →
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm-integrity: fix buffer overflow with keyed discard Since commit 68c5c42567bc ("dm-integrity: replace forgeable discard filler with a keyed sector marker"), integrity_metadata computes a checksum for every discarded block into the "checksums" buffer. integrity_sector_checksum always writes the whole digest. So if the tag size is smaller than the digest size, the checksum of the last block that fits into the buffer is written past the end of it. For example, with hmac(sha256) and tag size 16, a 4MiB discard writes 16 bytes past the kmalloc'ed page. Fix this by subtracting extra_space from the buffer size when computing max_blocks, like we do for writes.
