How to Fix CVE-2026-90417

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-2026-90417, 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: RDMA/cxgb4: Fix dereg_skb leak and double free in write_tpt_entry() When the device is in the fatal error state, write_tpt_entry() returns -EIO before handing the caller's preallocated skb to the transmit path; its allocation-failure returns do the same. c4iw_dereg_mr() ignores the error and frees mhp, leaking mhp->dereg_skb. c4iw_get_dma_mr() instead frees the skb a second time after dereg_mem() already consumed it, a double free. Make write_tpt_entry() the sole owner of a non-NULL skb, freeing it on every return preceding handoff to c4iw_ofld_send(): fatal error, tpt and stag allocation failure. c4iw_ofld_send() consumes the skb on success and error alike, so drop the redundant kfree_skb() in c4iw_get_dma_mr() after dereg_mem().
