CVE-2026-80836

EUVD-2026-71286
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: virtio - bound the akcipher result length

virtio_crypto_dataq_akcipher_callback() sets the result length from the
device-reported response length without bounding it to the destination
buffer, which was allocated for the original request length.
sg_copy_from_buffer() then reads that many bytes from the destination
buffer; a backend reporting a larger length over-reads adjacent kernel
heap into the caller's scatterlist (an out-of-bounds read).

Clamp the reported length to the originally requested destination length.
A conforming device reports no more than that, so valid results are
unaffected.
