Integrity None (I:N)
Availability High (A:H)

How to Fix CVE-2026-64264

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

mvn dependency:tree

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-64264, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under General Security Weakness. In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fuse-uring: fix EFAULT clobber in fuse_uring_commit copy_from_user() returns the number of bytes not copied as an unsigned residual on failure (1..sizeof(struct fuse_out_header)). fuse_uring_commit stores that residual in ssize_t err, sets req->out.h.error to -EFAULT, then jumps to out: with err still holding the positive residual. err = copy_from_user(&req->out.h, &ent->headers->in_out, sizeof(req->out.h)); if (err) { req->out.h.error = -EFAULT; goto out; /* err is the positive residual */ } ... out: fuse_uring_req_end(ent, req, err); fuse_uring_req_end() then runs if (error) req->out.h.error = error; which overwrites the just-assigned -EFAULT with the positive residual. FUSE callers such as fuse_simple_request() test err < 0 to detect failure, so the positive value is interpreted as success and the caller proceeds with an uninitialised or partial req->out.args. Fix by assigning err = -EFAULT in the failure branch before jumping to out, so fuse_uring_req_end() receives a negative errno and sets req->out.h.error to -EFAULT.
