Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as very critical, was found in Linux Kernel up to 6.12.95/6.18.38/7.1.3. Affected is the function xfs_exchmaps_estimate_overhead of the component XFS. The manipulation of the argument resblks with an unknown input leads to a data authenticity vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-345. The product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: fix exchmaps reservation limit check xfs_exchmaps_estimate_overhead() adds the bmbt and rmapbt overhead to a local resblks variable, but the final UINT_MAX check still tests req->resblks. That is the reservation value from before the overhead was added. The computed value is stored back in req->resblks and later passed to xfs_trans_alloc(), whose block reservation argument is unsigned int. Check the computed reservation so the existing limit applies to the value that will be used.

The advisory is shared for download at git.kernel.org. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-64357 since 07/19/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available. The current price for an exploit might be approx. USD $0-$5k (estimation calculated on 07/25/2026).

Upgrading to version 6.12.96, 6.18.39, 7.1.4 or 7.2-rc1 eliminates this vulnerability.
