CVE-2026-89701 is fixed in 20 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-89701, released September 23, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-89701 - Priority: High - CVSS: n/a (important) - EPSS: 0.0021 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Sep 11, 2026 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: validate nseconds in TIME_DELEG decode paths The xdrgen-based TIME_DELEG_ACCESS and TIME_DELEG_MODIFY decode arms store a raw uint32_t nseconds directly into tv_nsec without enforcing nseconds < NSEC_PER_SEC. The legacy nfsd4_decode_nfstime4 has this check but the TIME_DELEG paths do not. A malformed timespec can propagate through notify_change() to disk. Add range checks in both nfs4xdr.c (SETATTR path) and nfs4callback.c (CB_GETATTR path). ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released | |---|---|---|---|---| | Linux | bpftool6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | bpftool6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel-livepatch-6.18.51-120.162 amzn 2023 | 1:1.0-0.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo-common-aarch64 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-debuginfo-common-x86_64 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-headers amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-modules-extra amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-modules-extra-common amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | kernel6.18-tools-devel amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | linux Debian 14 | 7.2.6-1 | [DEBIAN-CVE-2026-89701](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/debian-cve-2026-89701.md) | Sep 23, 2026 | | Linux | microvm-kernel6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | perf6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | perf6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | python3-perf6.18 amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | | Linux | python3-perf6.18-debuginfo amzn 2023 | 1:6.18.51-120.162.amzn2023 | [ALAS2023-2026-3187](https://patchblox.com/security/data/fix/linux/alas2023-2026-3187.md) | Nov 7, 2026 | --- Data as of 2026-11-08T06:59:42Z UTC.
