Starting in version 0.0.202527\u00A0and prior to version 0.0.202622, an unprivileged process can cause the profiler to open a nonregular mapping file, such as a FIFO, and block indefinitely, preventing further ELF analysis and causing a denial of service. Version 0.0.202622\u00A0contains a patch. No known workarounds are available.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-09-11T21:16:42.934+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-09-14T19:55:59.052+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"opentelemetry-ebpf-profiler","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"open-telemetry\",\n                    \"product\": \"opentelemetry-ebpf-profiler\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 0.0.202527, < 0.0.202622\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":6.2,"severity":"MEDIUM"}],"references":["https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf-profiler/security/advisories/GHSA-f2r5-5m7w-p5cx","https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf-profiler/commit/234b685cab31c2cb2f79e966caeab168bcc489e4","https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf-profiler/releases/tag/v0.0.202622"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-48496","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-48496","identifiers":["CVE-2026-48496"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
