Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-43360

high Nessus Plugin ID 313447

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

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

 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: fix transaction abort on file creation due to name hash collision If we attempt to create several files with names that result in the same hash, we have to pack them in same dir item and that has a limit inherent to the leaf size. However if we reach that limit, we trigger a transaction abort and turns the filesystem into RO mode. This allows for a malicious user to disrupt a system, without the need to have administration privileges/capabilities.
 Reproducer: $ cat exploit-hash-collisions.sh #!/bin/bash DEV=/dev/sdi MNT=/mnt/sdi # Use smallest node size to make the test faster and require fewer file # names that result in hash collision. mkfs.btrfs -f
 --nodesize 4K $DEV mount $DEV $MNT # List of names that result in the same crc32c hash for btrfs. declare
