CVE-2026-46003 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: qrtr: ns: Limit the total number of nodes Currently, the nameserver doesn't limit the number of nodes it handles. This can be an attack vector if a malicious client starts registering random nodes, leading to memory exhaustion. Hence, limit the maximum number of nodes to 64. Note that, limit of 64 is chosen based on the current platform requirements. If requirement changes in the future, this limit can be increased.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's QRTR nameserver component allows for memory exhaustion by not limiting the number of nodes handled. This issue can be exploited by a malicious client registering random nodes. The vulnerability is present in the Linux kernel stable tree and affects several versions. To address this, the maximum number of nodes has been limited to 64, based on current platform requirements.
Users can update to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been addressed. Instructions for updating the Linux kernel can be found in the official Linux documentation.
