CVSS 3.1
5.5 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVE-2026-46231
Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bla: put backbone reference on failed claim hash insert
When batadv_bla_add_claim() fails to insert a new claim into the hash, it
leaked a reference to the backbone_gw for which the claim was intended.
Call batadv_backbone_gw_put() on the error path to release the reference
and avoid leaking the backbone_gw object.
