CVE-2026-49416 (GCVE-0-2026-49416)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-06-27 09:25 – Updated: 2026-06-30 03:55

Title

Integer overflow in vt(4) CONS_HISTORY ioctl

Summary

The CONS_HISTORY ioctl handler did not adequately validate the requested history size. A large value caused an integer overflow in the buffer size calculation, resulting in a heap allocation smaller than expected. Subsequent initialization of the buffer wrote beyond the end of the allocation. An unprivileged local user with access to a vt(4) device can trigger an out-of-bounds write in the kernel, potentially escalating privileges.

Severity

7.8 (High)
