Since al->cpu comes from the untrusted\nperf.data sample, a crafted file with a large CPU index causes an\nout-of-bounds heap read.\n\nUse perf_env__get_cpu_topology() which validates both NULL and bounds.\nAlso bounds-check al->cpu before the cast to struct perf_cpu (int16_t):\nwithout this, values like 65536 silently truncate to 0, bypassing the\naccessor's internal check and returning CPU 0's topology.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H","score":9.1},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5484b43a0ec8231c36fba6ead654cb72dbba8b8f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b9e8406651dcc1c19238aad11861a758683525b4","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/eb266a14c16a93eb4db7b56a452d6be93f8bdcd4"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:50:50.842544443+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-80670","score":0.00671,"percentile":0.52037,"date":"2026-10-31"},"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).
