Patch Radar priority: Routine. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-31535 - Priority: Routine - CVSS: 4.7 (medium) - EPSS: 0.0009 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Mar 30, 2026 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: make use of smbdirect_socket.recv_io.credits.available The logic off managing recv credits by counting posted recv_io and granted credits is racy. That's because the peer might already consumed a credit, but between receiving the incoming recv at the hardware and processing the completion in the 'recv_done' functions we likely have a window where we grant credits, which don't really exist. So we better have a decicated counter for the available credits, which will be incremented when we posted new recv buffers and drained when we grant the credits to the peer. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | bpftool6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | bpftool6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-livepatch-6.18.15-14.217 amzn 2023 | 1:1.0-0.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo-common-aarch64 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo-common-x86_64 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-headers amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-libbpf amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-libbpf-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-libbpf-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-libbpf-static amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-modules-extra amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-modules-extra-common amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | linux Debian 14 | 6.18.12-1 | [DEBIAN-CVE-2026-31535](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/debian-cve-2026-31535.md) | May 15, 2026 | | Linux | perf6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | perf6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | python3-perf6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | | Linux | python3-perf6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.15-14.217.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1514](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1514.md) | Mar 30, 2026 | --- Data as of 2026-11-09T01:18:40Z UTC.
