In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix out-of-bounds access in sysfs attribute read/write Some f2fs sysfs attributes suffer from out-of-bounds memory access and incorrect handling of integer values whose size is not 4 bytes. For example: vm:~# echo 65537 > /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/carve_out vm:~# cat /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/carve_out 65537 vm:~# echo 4294967297 > /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/atgc_age_threshold vm:~# cat /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/atgc_age_threshold 1 carve_out maps to {struct f2fs_sb_info}->carve_out, which is a 8-bit integer. However, the sysfs interface allows setting it to a value larger than 255, resulting in an out-of-range update. atgc_age_threshold maps to {struct atgc_management}->age_threshold, which is a 64-bit integer, but its sysfs interface cannot correctly set values larger than UINT_MAX. The root causes are: 1. __sbi_store() treats all default values as unsigned int, which prevents updating integers larger than 4 bytes and causes out-of-bounds writes for integers smaller than 4 bytes. 2. f2fs_sbi_show() also assumes all default values are unsigned int, leading to out-of-bounds reads and incorrect access to integers larger than 4 bytes. This patch introduces {struct f2fs_attr}->size to record the actual size of the integer associated with each sysfs attribute. With this information, sysfs read and write operations can correctly access and update values according to their real data size, avoiding memory corruption and truncation.

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    The Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU) discovered several vulnerabilities     in Apparmor. Details can be found in the Qualys advisory at     https://www.qualys.com/2026/03/10/crack-armor.txt

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     5.10.251-1.  This version also fixes a regression in the previous     update.  It additionally includes many more bug fixes from stable     updates 5.10.250 and 5.10.251.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.

    For the detailed security status of linux please refer to     its security tracker page at:

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    The Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU) discovered several vulnerabilities     in Apparmor. Details can be found in the Qualys advisory at     https://www.qualys.com/2026/03/10/crack-armor.txt

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     6.1.164-1~deb11u1.  This version also fixes a regression in the     previous update.  It additionally includes many more bug fixes from     stable updates 6.1.163 and 6.1.164.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux-6.1 packages.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - f2fs: fix out-of-bounds access in sysfs attribute read/write Some f2fs sysfs attributes suffer from out-     of-bounds memory access and incorrect handling of integer values whose size is not 4 bytes. For example:
    vm:~# echo 65537 > /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/carve_out vm:~# cat /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/carve_out 65537 vm:~# echo     4294967297 > /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/atgc_age_threshold vm:~# cat /sys/fs/f2fs/vde/atgc_age_threshold 1 carve_out     maps to {struct f2fs_sb_info}->carve_out, which is a 8-bit integer. However, the sysfs interface allows     setting it to a value larger than 255, resulting in an out-of-range update. atgc_age_threshold maps to     {struct atgc_management}->age_threshold, which is a 64-bit integer, but its sysfs interface cannot     correctly set values larger than UINT_MAX. The root causes are: 1. __sbi_store() treats all default values     as unsigned int, which prevents updating integers larger than 4 bytes and causes out-of-bounds writes for     integers smaller than 4 bytes. 2. f2fs_sbi_show() also assumes all default values are unsigned int,     leading to out-of-bounds reads and incorrect access to integers larger than 4 bytes. This patch introduces     {struct f2fs_attr}->size to record the actual size of the integer associated with each sysfs attribute.
    With this information, sysfs read and write operations can correctly access and update values according to     their real data size, avoiding memory corruption and truncation. (CVE-2026-23235)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

An update of the linux package has been released.
