Summary
In the Linux kernel net/packet subsystem, tpacket_rcv() claims a V1 or V2 ring slot before converting the virtio-net header. If the conversion fails, the drop path leaves the slot claimed; with a one-frame TPACKET_V2 ring, an unsupported UDP GSO packet leaves the only slot unavailable and the ring also drops the next valid packet.
Risk Assessment
This can cause loss of valid packets and disrupt applications using TPACKET_V2 rings, resulting in a denial of service (DoS).
Recommendation
Update the Linux kernel to a version containing the fix that clears the ownership bit on this error path.

In SOCFortress CoPilot prior to 0.1.76, case-report templates uploaded by the lowest-privilege customer_user role are later executed by non-sandboxed Jinja2 engines when an admin or analyst generates a report. Lack of template content validation and cross-tenant scoping allows an attacker to inject malicious Jinja expressions that are evaluated as Python on the backend.

- CVE-2026-118769Critical
In the Botan C++ cryptography library, the C API function botan_block_cipher_block_size converted a size_t block size to int without a bounds check. In an application that accepts external algorithm parameter strings and uses FFI raw ECB mode, an attacker can select the variable-block-size Lion cipher, causing the reported size to be truncated, insufficient memory allocation, and later memory corruption. The issue is fixed in version 3.13.0.
- CVE-2026-118762Critical
In the Monkeytype repository, the .github/workflows/fix-formatting.yml workflow runs on pull_request_target with repository write permissions, checks out a fork pull request, installs dependencies from the fork's package.json, and invokes the fork-controlled oxfmt binary. Because actions/checkout persists the elevated GITHUB_TOKEN in Git configuration until after untrusted code executes, an external contributor can run arbitrary code, read or exfiltrate the token, and push repository content or modify pull requests and issues. The issue affects the repository CI workflow, not the Monkeytype application or user data, and is fixed in version 26.43.0.

Original NVD description (English source)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/packet: clear RX owner on VNET header error Commit 61fad6816fc1 ("net/packet: tpacket_rcv: avoid a producer race condition") added rx_owner_map and made tpacket_rcv() claim a V1 or V2 ring slot before converting the virtio-net header. If the conversion fails, the drop path leaves the slot claimed. With a one-frame TPACKET_V2 ring, an unsupported UDP GSO packet leaves the only slot unavailable, so the ring also drops the next valid packet. Clear the ownership bit on this error path. TPACKET_V3 already clears its block state here.
