Official advisories
What to do
Three reads of the same public record: the decision, the versions on file, and the signals. Confirm the vendor advisory before you patch. This page does not publish exploit steps.
Executive
This is a public record, not a confirmed incident. SUSE-SU-2026:4706-1 is a unscored issue in the affected product (Unscored severity). CISA does not currently list it as known exploited. Next step: Compare installed versions with the linked vendor advisory before changing production.
System administrator
Check whether the affected product is installed. Ranges on record: kernel-default (0 → 6.4.0-150700.53.84.1); kernel-livepatch-SLE15-SP7_Update_22 (0 → 1-150700.15.3.1); kernel-64kb (0 → 6.4.0-150700.53.84.1); kernel-default (0 → 6.4.0-150700.53.84.1). Compare installed versions with the linked vendor advisory before changing production.
