In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fuse: reject oversized dirents in page cache
fuse_add_dirent_to_cache() computes a serialized dirent size from the
server-controlled namelen field and copies the dirent into a single
page-cache page. The existing logic only checks whether the dirent fits
in the remaining space of the current page and advances to a fresh page
if not. It never checks whether the dirent itself exceeds PAGE_SIZE.
As a result, a malicious FUSE server can return a dirent with
namelen=4095, producing a serialized record size of 4120 bytes. On 4 KiB
page systems this causes memcpy() to overflow the cache page by 24 bytes
into the following kernel page.
Reject dirents that cannot fit in a single page before copying them into
the readdir cache.

CVE-2026-31694 [HIGH] CWE-1284 kernel: fuse: reject oversized dirents in page cache
kernel: fuse: reject oversized dirents in page cache
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) component. A malicious FUSE server could exploit this by providing an oversized directory entry (dirent) that is not properly validated. This improper validation causes a memory copy operation to write beyond the allocated buffer, leading to a 24-byte overflow into an adjacent kernel memory page. This memory corruption could potentially lead to information disclosure or other unpredictable system behavior.

fuse: reject oversized dirents in page cache
fuse_add_dirent_to_cache() computes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fuse: reject oversized dirents in page cache
fuse_add_dirent_to_cache() computes a serialized dirent size from the
server-controlled namelen field and copies the dirent into a single
page-cache page. The existing logic only checks whether the dirent fits
in the remaining space of the current page and advances to a fresh page
if not. It never checks whether the dirent itself exceeds PAGE_SIZE.
As a result, a malicious FUSE server can return a dirent with
namelen=4095, producing a serialized record size of 4120 bytes. On 4 KiB
page systems this causes memcpy() to overflow the cache page by 24 bytes
into the following kernel page.
Reject dirents that cannot fit in a single page before copying them into

## ⚡ Weekly Recap: ShareFile Threat, Citrix Bleed 2 Ransomware, AI Coding Attacks, and More

## Windows Netlogon: critical RCE
Anyone responsible for securing a domain controller should prioritize remediation of CVE-2026-41089 , which is a critical stack-based buffer overflow in Windows Netlogon with a CVSS v3 base score of 9.8. Exploitation leads to execution in the context of the Netlogon service, so that’s SYSTEM privileges on the domain controller. For most pentesters, that’s the point at which the customer report more or less writes itself. No privileges
