Such short metadata also lets the kernel read beyond the registered\narea.\n\nRequire 16 bytes rather than sizeof(struct xsk_tx_metadata) to preserve\ncompatibility with applications that do not use launch-time metadata.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1bb30b181d9f0484e141f8411e15ed906d5c6780","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/21b8536aee819792f1b4b38b9aacf2a073025d49","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/642c6e73fce17fdca93a5793c4d22359fda866d7","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cfb9d2976b277e554e28c165e3eff4b4a8ea10bd"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:49:38.260478770+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-74710","score":0.00129,"percentile":0.02485,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
