Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-72150 - Priority: High - CVSS: n/a (important) - EPSS: 0.0021 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Aug 15, 2026 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sunrpc: fix uninitialized xprt_create_args structure The xprt_create_args structure is allocated on the stack without initialization in rpc_sysfs_xprt_switch_add_xprt_store(). While some fields are manually populated, critical fields like srcaddr, bc_xps, and flags contain uninitialized stack garbage. This can lead to: 1. Kernel panic when xs_setup_xprt() dereferences garbage srcaddr 2. Information leak if srcaddr points to sensitive stack data 3. Unpredictable behavior if flags has random bits set The fix is to zero-initialize the structure to ensure all unused fields are NULL/0, preventing the transport setup code from acting on garbage data. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | bpftool6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | bpftool6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-livepatch-6.18.41-94.142 amzn 2023 | 1:1.0-0.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo-common-aarch64 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo-common-x86_64 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-headers amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-modules-extra amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-modules-extra-common amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | linux Debian 14 | 7.1.5-1 | [DEBIAN-CVE-2026-72150](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/debian-cve-2026-72150.md) | Aug 15, 2026 | | Linux | microvm-kernel6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | perf6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | perf6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | python3-perf6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | | Linux | python3-perf6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.41-94.142.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-2071](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-2071.md) | Aug 31, 2026 | --- Data as of 2026-11-10T01:44:33Z UTC.
