Overview

CVE-2026-93270 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 24, 2026.

Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Disallow interpreter fallback for BPF_ADDR_PERCPU insn

The BPF_MOV64_PERCPU_REG insn requires JIT to emit native code to for

'dst_reg = src_reg + <percpu_base_off>'.

However, the interpreter ignores the 'off' at its ALU64_MOV_X label.

The 'off' indicates the insn is BPF_MOV64_PERCPU_REG insn. Then, when

the interpreter loads memory from the register, it will hit a page

fault.

[ 2.545572] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffacaaf034

[ 2.546485] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode

[ 2.547167] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

[ 2.547850] PGD 134e63067 P4D 134e63067 PUD 134e64063 PMD 10021c063 PTE 800ffffeca550062

[ 2.548912] Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI

Set jit_required as true in order to disallow interpreter fallback in

core.c::__bpf_prog_select_runtime(), if any BPF_ADDR_PERCPU insn is

patched to the prog.

BTW, rename the helper bpf_map_supports_cpu_flags()

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-93270?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-93270 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
