CVE-2026-91142 - Cockpit: integer overflow in `do_lastlog()` offset calculation can misaddress `lastlog` entries on ilp32 builds

Brief

CVE ID : CVE-2026-91142

Description : A flaw was found in Cockpit. An integer overflow vulnerability in the `do_lastlog()` function, specifically in the offset calculation for `lastlog` entries on ILP32 (Integer, Long, Pointer 32-bit) builds, can be exploited. A low-privileged authenticated user with a specially provisioned large User ID (UID) can cause the computed offset to wrap around.

This allows the user to perform unauthorized reads and writes to other users' `lastlog` records, potentially disclosing or altering sensitive login accounting information.

Severity: 3.6
