CVE-2026-42009

A flaw was found in gnutls. A remote attacker could exploit an issue in the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) packet reordering logic. The comparator function, responsible for ordering DTLS packets by sequence numbers, did not correctly handle packets with duplicate sequence numbers. This could lead to unstable packet ordering or undefined behavior, resulting in a denial of service.

CVE-2026-42010

A flaw was found in gnutls. Servers configured with RSA-PSK (Rivest–Shamir–Adleman – Pre-Shared Key) wrongfully matched usernames containing a NUL character with truncated usernames. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted username, leading to an authentication bypass. This vulnerability allows an attacker to gain unauthorized access by circumventing the authentication process.

The attack requires local access, which prevents remote exploitation and is the primary factor keeping the rating at Important rather than Critical.\n\nExploitation requires three components to be present on the system: the `cifs` kernel module (loaded or loadable), the `cifs-utils` package with its default `cifs.spnego` request-key rule, and the ability to create unprivileged user and mount namespaces. All three must be present for the attack chain to succeed. Environments that do not use SMB/CIFS file shares or Active Directory integration are unlikely to have `cifs-utils` installed, reducing their exposure.\n\nIn OpenShift Container Platform 4, this flaw is rated Low. The default `restricted-v2` Security Context Constraint (SCC) sets `allowPrivilegeEscalation: false` on all pods, which causes the kernel to ignore setuid file bits, preventing privilege escalation. Under non-default SCCs such as `anyuid` that permit privilege escalation, the vulnerability is constrained by PID and mount namespace isolation to the container\u0027s own filesystem. An attacker would only be able to escalate privileges within the container, not on the host or across pods.",
