Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-46045 - Priority: High - CVSS: 7.8 (high) - EPSS: 0.0013 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: May 25, 2026 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/md-llbitmap: skip reading rdevs that are not in_sync When reading bitmap pages from member disks, the code iterates through all rdevs and attempts to read from the first available one. However, it only checks for raid_disk assignment and Faulty flag, missing the In_sync flag check. This can cause bitmap data to be read from spare disks that are still being rebuilt and don't have valid bitmap information yet. Reading stale or uninitialized bitmap data from such disks can lead to incorrect dirty bit tracking, potentially causing data corruption during recovery or normal operation. Add the In_sync flag check to ensure bitmap pages are only read from fully synchronized member disks that have valid bitmap data. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | bpftool6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | bpftool6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-livepatch-6.18.30-61.116 amzn 2023 | 1:1.0-0.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo-common-aarch64 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo-common-x86_64 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-headers amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-modules-extra amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-modules-extra-common amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | linux Debian 14 | 7.0.4-1 | [DEBIAN-CVE-2026-46045](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/debian-cve-2026-46045.md) | May 27, 2026 | | Linux | perf6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | perf6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | python3-perf6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | | Linux | python3-perf6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.30-61.116.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-1754](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-1754.md) | May 25, 2026 | --- Data as of 2026-11-08T06:59:42Z UTC.
