CVE-2026-74396 is fixed in 20 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-74396, released August 15, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-74396 - Priority: High - CVSS: 7.5 (high) - EPSS: 0.0073 - 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: RDMA/mlx5: Fix UMR XLT cleanup on ODP populate failure mlx5r_umr_update_xlt() allocates and DMA maps an XLT buffer with mlx5r_umr_create_xlt(). The buffer is released by the common cleanup path through mlx5r_umr_unmap_free_xlt(). After mlx5_odp_populate_xlt() became fallible, its error path returned directly and skipped that cleanup. This leaks the XLT DMA mapping and buffer. If the emergency XLT page was used, it also leaves xlt_emergency_page_mutex locked. Break out of the loop so execution falls through the existing cleanup path. ## 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-2026-74396](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/debian-cve-2026-74396.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 2026-11-08T00:53:09Z UTC.
