Recommended action
Patch only the product branches with a verified fix

Medium technical severity with no CISA KEV confirmation; remediate through the normal risk-based patch cycle unless local exposure raises the priority. Verified remediation exists for at least one product or source, but 14 structured product or package states remain unresolved. Apply remediation only to the exact product branch confirmed by its source.

Published severityMediumOperational priority:Low, lowered one band.downgradedsince 12 May 2026

Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • Exploitation requires an existing local or physical foothold with privileges.
  • EPSS is 0.28% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict local access and enforce least privilege on affected hosts.
  • Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs Linux Linux and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: No default targetRemediation target: Normal maintenance

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

Cross-source reconciliation

Remediation availability differs by product scope

Verified remediation exists for at least one product or source, but 14 structured product or package states remain unresolved. Apply remediation only to the exact product branch confirmed by its source.

Distribution package intelligence

Release-specific package status

Debian, ubuntu findings are scoped to the named distribution, release and source package. An absent finding does not mean a package is unaffected.

17 package states
Package result overrides the generic status

BlackTree has verified remediation for at least one product or source, but the relevant distribution still reports no fixed package for 13 affected package states shown here. Treat those rows as affected with no fix until that distribution publishes a fixed version.

Repository candidate not checked

A published vendor fix does not prove that a matching update is enabled and installable on a particular asset. Confirm the local package candidate before scheduling remediation.

Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: mesh: Fix leak of mesh_preq_queue objects The hwmp code use objects of type mesh_preq_queue, added to a list in ieee80211_if_mesh, to keep track of mpath we need to resolve. If the mpath gets deleted, ex mesh interface is removed, the entries in that list will never get cleaned. Fix this by flushing all corresponding items of the preq_queue in mesh_path_flush_pending(). This should take care of KASAN reports like this: unreferenced object 0xffff00000668d800 (size 128): comm "kworker/u8:4", pid 67, jiffies 4295419552 (age 1836.444s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 1f 05 09 00 00 ff ff 00 d5 68 06 00 00 ff ff ..........h..... 8e 97 ea eb 3e b8 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ....>........... backtrace: [ ] __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x1e0/0x35c [ ] kmalloc_trace+0x34/0x80 [ ] mesh_queue_preq+0x44/0x2a8 [ ] mesh_nexthop_resolve+0x198/0x19c [ ] ieee80211_xmit+0x1d0/0x1f4 [ ] __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x30c/0x764 [ ] ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x9c/0x7a4 [ ] dev_hard_start_xmit+0x174/0x440 [ ] __dev_queue_xmit+0xe24/0x111c [ ] batadv_send_skb_packet+0x180/0x1e4 [ ] batadv_v_elp_periodic_work+0x2f4/0x508 [ ] process_one_work+0x4b8/0xa1c [ ] worker_thread+0x9c/0x634 [ ] kthread+0x1bc/0x1c4 [ ] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 unreferenced object 0xffff000009051f00 (size 128): comm "kworker/u8:4", pid 67, jiffies 4295419553 (age 1836.440s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 90 d6 92 0d 00 00 ff ff 00 d8 68 06 00 00 ff ff ..........h..... 36 27 92 e4 02 e0 01 00 00 58 79 06 00 00 ff ff 6'.......Xy..... backtrace: [ ] __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x1e0/0x35c [ ] kmalloc_trace+0x34/0x80 [ ] mesh_queue_preq+0x44/0x2a8 [ ] mesh_nexthop_resolve+0x198/0x19c [ ] ieee80211_xmit+0x1d0/0x1f4 [ ] __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x30c/0x764 [ ] ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x9c/0x7a4 [ ] dev_hard_start_xmit+0x174/0x440 [ ] __dev_queue_xmit+0xe24/0x111c [ ] batadv_send_skb_packet+0x180/0x1e4 [ ] batadv_v_elp_periodic_work+0x2f4/0x508 [ ] process_one_work+0x4b8/0xa1c [ ] worker_thread+0x9c/0x634 [ ] kthread+0x1bc/0x1c4 [ ] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20

Why

The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, making the memory unavailable for reallocation and reuse.

How

An attacker operating through local access may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: mesh: Fix leak of mesh_preq_queue objects The hwmp code use objects of type mesh_preq_queue, added to a list in ieee80211_if_mesh, to keep track of mpath we need to resolve.

This should take care of KASAN reports like this: unreferenced object 0xffff00000668d800 (size 128): comm "kworker/u8:4", pid 67, jiffies 4295419552 (age 1836.444s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 1f 05 09 00 00 ff ff 00 d5 68 06 00 00 ff ff ..........h..... 8e 97 ea eb 3e b8 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ....>........... backtrace: [<000000007302a0b6>] __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x1e0/0x35c [<00000000049bd418>] kmalloc_trace+0x34/0x80 [<0000000000d792bb>] mesh_queue_preq+0x44/0x2a8 [<00000000c99c3696>] mesh_nexthop_resolve+0x198/0x19c [<00000000926bf598>] ieee80211_xmit+0x1d0/0x1f4 [<00000000fc8c2284>] __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x30c/0x764 [<000000005926ee38>] ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x9c/0x7a4 [<000000004c86e916>] dev_hard_start_xmit+0x174/0x440 [<0000000023495647>] __dev_queue_xmit+0xe24/0x111c [<00000000cfe9ca78>] batadv_send_skb_packet+0x180/0x1e4 [<000000007bacc5d5>] batadv_v_elp_periodic_work+0x2f4/0x508 [<00000000adc3cd94>] process_one_work+0x4b8/0xa1c [<00000000b36425d1>] worker_thread+0x9c/0x634 [<0000000005852dd5>] kthread+0x1bc/0x1c4 [<000000005fccd770>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 unreferenced object 0xffff000009051f00 (size 128): comm "kworker/u8:4", pid 67, jiffies 4295419553 (age 1836.440s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 90 d6 92 0d 00 00 ff ff 00 d8 68 06 00 00 ff ff ..........h..... 36 27 92 e4 02 e0 01 00 00 58 79 06 00 00 ff ff 6'.......Xy..... backtrace: [<000000007302a0b6>] __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x1e0/0x35c [<00000000049bd418>] kmalloc_trace+0x34/0x80 [<0000000000d792bb>] mesh_queue_preq+0x44/0x2a8 [<00000000c99c3696>] mesh_nexthop_resolve+0x198/0x19c [<00000000926bf598>] ieee80211_xmit+0x1d0/0x1f4 [<00000000fc8c2284>] __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x30c/0x764 [<000000005926ee38>] ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x9c/0x7a4 [<000000004c86e916>] dev_hard_start_xmit+0x174/0x440 [<0000000023495647>] __dev_queue_xmit+0xe24/0x111c [<00000000cfe9ca78>] batadv_send_skb_packet+0x180/0x1e4 [<000000007bacc5d5>] batadv_v_elp_periodic_work+0x2f4/0x508 [<00000000adc3cd94>] process_one_work+0x4b8/0xa1c [<00000000b36425d1>] worker_thread+0x9c/0x634 [<0000000005852dd5>] kthread+0x1bc/0x1c4 [<000000005fccd770>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20

Why

The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, making the memory unavailable for reallocation and reuse.

How

An attacker operating through local access may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

02

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
local access → Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor
Attack surface
Local
Privileges required
Low: a basic authenticated account is required
User interaction
None
Attack complexity
Low: no specialised conditions are recorded
Security boundary
Unchanged: impact remains within the vulnerable component's security authority
Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-401 ↗

CWE-401: Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime. The product does not sufficiently track and release allocated memory after it has been used, making the memory unavailable for reallocation and reuse.

CVSS vector
?CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

Common Vulnerability Scoring System 3.1: the compact vector below is decoded into plain language.

AVLocalAttack vector: The attacker needs local access to the vulnerable system.ACLowAttack complexity: No specialised conditions are required beyond attacker-controlled input.PRLowPrivileges required: The attacker needs basic user-level privileges.UINoneUser interaction: No action by another user is required.SUnchangedScope: The security impact remains within the vulnerable component's authority.CNoneConfidentiality impact: No direct loss is represented by this metric.INoneIntegrity impact: No direct loss is represented by this metric.AHighAvailability impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.
Post-exploitation / living off the land
The issue can support a local privilege or sandbox boundary transition; normal system utilities may then be available in the gained context.
CWE-401
