CVE-2026-64254
5.5 · MEDIUMOverview
CVE-2026-64254 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting linux linux_kernel. It was published on July 24, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (MEDIUM).
This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5, rated MEDIUM. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.
Technical Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NTB: epf: Avoid pci_iounmap() with offset when PEER_SPAD and CONFIG share BAR
When BAR_PEER_SPAD and BAR_CONFIG share one PCI BAR, the module teardown
path ends up calling pci_iounmap() on the same iomem with some offset,
which is unnecessary and triggers a kernel warning like the following:
Trying to vunmap() nonexistent vm area (0000000069a5ffe8)
WARNING: mm/vmalloc.c:3470 at vunmap+0x58/0x68, CPU#5: modprobe/2937

Fix it by unmapping only when PEER_SPAD and CONFIG use difference bars.
Remediation
Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from linux. Update linux_kernel to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
