{"cve":"CVE-2026-97415","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-24T17:17:19.223","modified":"2026-10-03T11:17:53.457","status":"Received","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbtrfs: tree-checker: validate names in ROOT_REF and ROOT_BACKREF\n\nROOT_REF and ROOT_BACKREF items contain a struct btrfs_root_ref followed\nby the subvolume name. Several readers assume that this layout is already\nvalid and then use the on-disk name length directly. A corrupted item can\ntherefore make those readers address bytes outside the item, and\nBTRFS_IOC_GET_SUBVOL_INFO can copy too many bytes into its fixed-size UAPI\nname buffer.\n\nValidate ROOT_REF and ROOT_BACKREF items in tree-checker before any reader\nuses them. Reject records that do not contain a non-empty name, whose\nname_len does not exactly describe the remaining item payload, or whose\nname exceeds BTRFS_NAME_LEN.\n\nFor BTRFS_IOC_GET_SUBVOL_INFO, copy only the validated on-disk name_len\ninstead of deriving the copy length from the item size. The ioctl result is\nzeroed when allocated. That leaves the existing trailing zero byte\nuntouched.","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/0af37c217edf15fa21dac1c40822086df356c6bb","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1370badf6b823ce3cde39a65f46f9e5dc7b4bf43","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/74f577c722c99248d804eca18e7de7c5e47549d7","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9154542070ca7eadb3c764a882f39a127677854b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ba6c4fc662853f6662e4db060cf88ee994053e21"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:56:02.509636177+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-97415","score":0.00131,"percentile":0.02698,"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).
