Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs Security Update
Severity
Moderate
Notes
Topic: An update for Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs is now available.
Details: This update includes the following RPMs: p11-kit: * mingw32-p11-kit-0.26.2-1.2.hum1 (noarch) * mingw64-p11-kit-0.26.2-1.2.hum1 (noarch) * p11-kit-0.26.2-1.2.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * p11-kit-client-0.26.2-1.2.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * p11-kit-devel-0.26.2-1.2.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * p11-kit-server-0.26.2-1.2.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * p11-kit-trust-0.26.2-1.2.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * p11-kit-0.26.2-1.2.hum1.src (src) Security Fix(es): p11-kit: * CVE-2026-13757

A flaw was found in p11-kit. The RPC message attribute parsing functions p11_rpc_message_get_attribute() and p11_rpc_message_get_attribute_array_value() form a mutually-recursive call chain with no recursion depth limit when processing nested CKA_WRAP_TEMPLATE, CKA_UNWRAP_TEMPLATE, and CKA_DERIVE_TEMPLATE attributes. An unauthenticated attacker with local access to the p11-kit RPC Unix domain socket can send a specially crafted request with deeply nested template attributes, causing stack exhaustion and crashing the p11-kit server process and its dependent services.
