Is your app affected by CVE-2026-74736?
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Cursor or any AI coding tool: it runs a free Shippable scan of your project and fixes what it finds. Built with Lovable, Bolt or v0? Scan your live app. Or upload your package file.
Who is affected
- Linux Linux: 6.3
How to check
- Find out whether you run the affected product and which version, then compare it with the versions above.
How to fix
Copies a prompt for Claude Code, Cursor or Codex that asks it to check whether you run this product.
- Apply the vendor's update or mitigation from the references below. If there is none yet, limit exposure of the affected service until there is.
- If a vulnerable version was live, check your logs and rotate the secrets that server could read.
The advisory
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_bpf: reject dev-bound programs bound to a different device
cls_bpf_prog_from_efd() obtained a SCHED_CLS program via
bpf_prog_get_type_dev() but never verified that a device-bound (offloaded)
program's bound netdev matches the TC netdev the classifier is being
attached to. This let a program loaded with prog_ifindex for device A be
attached via cls_bpf + skip_sw to device B; deleting device A then
destroyed the program's offload state while it was still attached to
device B, triggering a netdevsim WARN (panic with panic_on_warn=1).
Mirror the XDP attach path (net/core/dev.c) and reject the attach with
-EINVAL when a dev-bound program's bound device does not match the
target device.
Check your whole app
Dependencies are only half of it. Free and read-only: before you push, run npx shippable-dev scan localhost:3000 in your project folder, no account needed. For your live app, you prove it's yours with a one-line tag first.
