CVE-2026-98583: nfc: nfcmrvl: validate helper command length before pull
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.21% (FIRST EPSS).
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 4d4601e182c8567329be7d919669ec4d847ddd93, 686f942332b1667f13f3b8d6a2f50bcfbf42e277, 6a17a5806e9fcd99cf0dd30c3e6301f2aa1fac3c; azl3 kernel 6.6.157.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.159.1-1.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 4d4601e182c8567329be7d919669ec4d847ddd93, 686f942332b1667f13f3b8d6a2f50bcfbf42e277, 6a17a5806e9fcd99cf0dd30c3e6301f2aa1fac3c; azl3 kernel 6.6.157.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.159.1-1 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: nfcmrvl: validate helper command length before pull The firmware download receive path removes the NCI data header and reads the helper command before validating the remaining packet length. A short frame can therefore reach the data access before the malformed packet is rejected. Validate the complete helper command length before stripping the NCI data header.
