How to Fix CVE-2026-89482

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-2026-89482, 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: nvme-tcp: do not accept C2HData based on blk_rq_payload_bytes() alone Commit 25e5cb780e62 ("nvme-tcp: fix possible crash in write_zeroes processing") established that blk_rq_payload_bytes() must not be read without first checking blk_rq_nr_phys_segments(), and recorded the result in nvme_tcp_setup_cmd_pdu() as req->data_len. The receive side was left as it was. The two differ for REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES, which has no physical segments but a non-zero blk_rq_bytes(), so setup leaves req->iter untouched while the receive gate lets a C2HData through and nvme_tcp_recv_data() copies into whatever the previous command on that tag left there. The driver-private area is zeroed only when the tag set is allocated. Reproduced with a test target that leaves a residual iterator on a tag and then sends a C2HData for a WRITE_ZEROES command on the same tag: BUG: KASAN: wild-memory-access in _copy_to_iter+0x642/0x1330 Write of size 512 at addr ffe728c2175dfa81 by task kworker/0:1H/103 CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 103 Comm: kworker/0:1H Not tainted 7.2.0-rc5-NVMETCP-gf5098b6bae76 #1 PREEMPT(lazy) Hardware name: QEMU Ubuntu 24.04 PC v2 (i440FX + PIIX, arch_caps fix, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014 Workqueue: nvme_tcp_wq nvme_tcp_io_work Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x53/0x70 kasan_report+0xce/0x100 ? _copy_to_iter+0x642/0x1330 kasan_check_range+0x105/0x1b0 __asan_memcpy+0x3c/0x60 _copy_to_iter+0x642/0x1330 ? __pfx_sock_has_perm+0x10/0x10 ? worker_thread+0x45b/0xd10 ? __pfx__copy_to_iter+0x10/0x10 ? _raw_spin_lock_bh+0x83/0xe0 ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_bh+0x10/0x10 __skb_datagram_iter+0xf3/0x820 ? __pfx_simple_copy_to_iter+0x10/0x10 ? __asan_memcpy+0x3c/0x60 ? skb_copy_bits+0x58d/0x830 skb_copy_datagram_iter+0x37/0x120 nvme_tcp_recv_skb+0xa07/0x4320 ? __pfx_nvme_tcp_recv_skb+0x10/0x10 __tcp_read_sock+0x1ab/0x810 ? __pfx_nvme_tcp_recv_skb+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_lock_sock_nested+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx___tcp_read_sock+0x10/0x10 nvme_tcp_try_recv+0x152/0x1e0 ? __pfx_nvme_tcp_try_recv+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_mutex_unlock+0x10/0x10 nvme_tcp_io_work+0x1e4/0x6c0 ? __schedule+0x181a/0x49f0 ? __pfx_nvme_tcp_io_work+0x10/0x10 process_one_work+0x633/0x1030 Keep the blk_rq_payload_bytes() test and add req->data_len to it. The old test is what rejects a C2HData naming a tag that is no longer in flight, because blk_update_request() zeroes rq->__data_len on completion; req->data_len and req->curr_bio are driver-private and survive completion, so they cannot stand in for it. Setup initialises the iterator only when both req->curr_bio and req->data_len are set, so the gate now tests the same two.
