CVE-2026-97631 doesn’t affect home and small office users, or any other users who boot their devices solely from disk drives. Instead, it applies only to organizations with machines that boot from local networks, or conceivably from Internet-connected resources.
Certain companies restore images through the network and/or solely boot machines from the network depending on the field of work, and this affects them.
Thank you ever so much for this comforting snippet. 🙏
Don’t tell me what I can’t do at home!!
At my company this isn’t the norm. Maybe kickstart data comes from the network but not the OS itself.
