Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-80675 - Priority: High - CVSS: 7.1 (high) - EPSS: 0.0017 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Aug 28, 2026 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: libbpf: Reject non-exclusive metadata maps in the signed loader The loader verifies map->sha against the metadata hash in its instructions. map->sha is calculated when BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD is called on the frozen map. While the map is frozen, the /signed loader/ must also ensure the map is exclusive, as, without exclusivity (which a hostile host could just omit when loading the loader), another BPF program with map access can mutate the contents afterwards, so the check passes on stale data. With the extra check as part of the signed loader, it now refuses to move on with map->sha validation if the host set it up wrongly. ## 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-2026-80675](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/debian-cve-2026-80675.md) | Aug 29, 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 2026-11-09T01:18:40Z UTC.
