Summary
CVE-2026-75900 affecting package swtpm 0.8.1-5
Details

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in swtpm's SWTPMNVRAMCheckHeader() function. The entry guard checks the buffer length against sizeof(bh), where bh is a pointer, instead of sizeof(*bh), the actual struct size. This allows an undersized buffer to pass validation, causing a 2-byte heap overread on 64-bit systems (6 bytes on 32-bit) when accessing the totlen field. This may cause daemon termination on some platforms and leaks heap data to the log.
