AI-suggested

A patch is available and has been released in Linux kernel versions 7.0.0-1012.12~24.04.1 and later. Users should update to these fixed versions or later to remediate this vulnerability. No additional mitigation steps are required beyond applying the official fix.

Description

CVE-2026-64264 is a vulnerability in the Linux kernel's fuse-uring subsystem where an error handling flaw causes a positive residual value to overwrite a negative error code. This leads to failure conditions being misinterpreted as success, potentially causing uninitialized or partial data to be used. The issue arises from improper assignment of the error variable after a copy_from_user() failure. A fix has been released to correctly assign the negative error code before exiting the function.
