CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.
No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

smb/client: validate new EOF for zero range
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb/client: validate new EOF for zero range
When FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is used without FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE,
smb3_zero_range() may extend EOF without checking RLIMIT_FSIZE, allowing
the file to grow beyond the caller's file-size limit.
Fix this by calling inode_newsize_ok() before sending the zero-range
request when the operation would extend EOF.
Reproducer, using a file on a CIFS mount:
bash -c '
FILE=/mnt/cifs/repro
trap "" SIGXFSZ
ulimit -f 3072
truncate -s 2M "$FILE"
fallocate --zero-range -o 0 -l 4M "$FILE"
echo "fallocate rc=$?"
stat -c "file size=%s" "$FILE"
'
Before this change, the operation succeeds despite the 3 MiB limit:
fallocate rc=0
file size=4194304
After this change, fallocate fails and leaves the file at 2 MiB.
