Threats tagged 'alsa-2026:96212'

The util-linux package, essential for Linux system utilities including fdisk and login, has multiple security vulnerabilities. One of these is a heap use-after-free in libblkid nested partition probing (CVE-2026-13595). Additional issues include a TOCTOU race condition in the mount program and an integer overflow in the DOS partition parser. These vulnerabilities could lead to system instability or compromise of partition metadata. A security update fixing these issues is available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and related distributions.
