CVE-2026-102730: High severity Eclipse Foundation LevelX vulnerability

Published Sep 29, 2026
·
Updated

Mounting an attacker-controlled NAND flash image (lxnandflashopen()) triggers an unbounded out-of-bounds heap write in LevelX's NAND flash-translation-layer metadata parser that overwrites a driver function pointer in the control block, giving a demonstrated control-flow hijack — RIP set to a full 8-byte attacker-chosen value (register-verified). Two accompanying OOB reads. All reproduced verbatim under ASan at HEAD 9f1cfdc. (The affected metadata-parser header states "Some portions generated by Copilot (Sonnet 4.6)" — an AI-generated parser with an unchecked on-flash count.)
