CVE-2026-74702: Software Security Vulnerability Vulnerability
HIGHCVE-2026-74702 is a HIGH (CVSS 8.8) security vulnerability vulnerability (General Security Weakness) affecting Software libraries in the Maven ecosystem. Remediation is available in the latest vendor maintenance releases.
CVE-2026-74702 at a Glance
Security Impact
CVSS: 8.8
The security impact metrics below are parsed directly from the CVSS v3.1 vector string (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).
How to Fix CVE-2026-74702
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.
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
mvn dependency:treeHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-74702, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:treeAnalyze 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.

"details" : "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nvhost-scsi: reject feature changes after endpoint\n\nvhost_scsi_setup_vq_cmds() runs from VHOST_SCSI_SET_ENDPOINT and allocates\neach command's protection scatterlist array (prot_sgl) according to the\nacknowledged VIRTIO_SCSI_F_T10_PI bit. The command pools are not rebuilt\nwhen VHOST_SET_FEATURES changes that bit later.\n\nAlthough virtio feature bits must not change after feature negotiation,\nvhost_scsi_set_features() currently accepts such a request after the\nendpoint is active and updates acked_features. Enabling T10-PI after\nendpoint setup therefore leaves prot_sgl NULL while the I/O path follows\nthe new feature bit.\n\nFor a 129-page protection payload, vhost_scsi_mapal() passes the missing\nfirst chunk to sg_alloc_table_chained():\n\n sg_alloc_table_chained(table, 129, first_chunk=NULL,\n nents_first_chunk=inline_sg_cnt)\n\nsg_pool_index() then hits:\n\n BUG_ON(nents > SG_CHUNK_SIZE); /* 129 > 128 */\n\nThe kernel reported the following call trace and register state:\n\n Call Trace:\n <TASK>\n ? __sg_alloc_table+0x1d8/0x250\n ? __pfx_vhost_run_work_list+0x10/0x10 [vhost]\n sg_alloc_table_chained+0x59/0xf0\n ? __pfx_sg_pool_alloc+0x10/0x10\n ? vhost_scsi_calc_sgls.constprop.0+0x43/0x60 [vhost_scsi]\n vhost_scsi_handle_vq+0xf02/0x1700 [vhost_scsi]\n ? __pfx_vhost_scsi_handle_vq+0x10/0x10 [vhost_scsi]\n vhost_scsi_handle_kick+0x37/0x50 [vhost_scsi]\n vhost_run_work_list+0x8e/0xd0 [vhost]\n vhost_task_fn+0xe1/0x210\n ret_from_fork+0x348/0x540\n </TASK>\n\n RIP: 0010:0x4\n CR2 = 0x4\n RSP: 0018:ffffc90000dbf940 EFLAGS: 00010202\n RAX: ffffffff82396810 RBX: ffff88811dc28b80 RCX: 0000000000000000\n RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000820 RDI: 0000000000000081\n\nVHOST_F_LOG_ALL is a vhost-specific runtime feature and remains the only\nexception.\n\nReject changes to any feature other than VHOST_F_LOG_ALL while the\nendpoint is active.
