Description

This security bulletin contains information about 11 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper control of a resource through its lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31431)

CWE-ID: CWE-664 - Improper control of a resource through its lifetime

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper memory handling within the authencesn cryptographic template in algif_aead when processing AEAD operations. A local user can trigger the vulnerable code path to execute arbitrary code on the system.

Note, this vulnerability was dubbed "Copy Fail". 


2) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43078)

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds write in af_alg_pull_tsgl when reassigning pages. A local user can trigger page reassignment that reassigns one more page than necessary to cause a denial of service.


3) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43077)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in algif_aead when processing decryption requests. A local user can provide a crafted receive buffer size to cause a denial of service.


4) Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43033)

CWE-ID: CWE-670 - Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of high-order sequence bits in authencesn when decrypting data out of place. A local user can trigger out-of-place decryption with a specially crafted data layout to cause a denial of service.


5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31533)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a use-after-free.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in tls_do_encryption() when handling an -EBUSY error path during asynchronous encryption processing. A local user can trigger asynchronous encryption and a subsequent sendmsg to cause a use-after-free.

The issue occurs because a pending cryptd callback may access a freed tls_rec after cleanup state is corrupted by double handling of encrypt_pending and scatterlist restoration.


6) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31504)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in packet_release() and fanout group handling when processing a concurrent NETDEV_UP event during socket release. A local user can trigger a race condition to cause a denial of service.

The issue affects fanout sockets during a race that can leave a dangling pointer in the fanout array.


7) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31419)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in bond_xmit_broadcast() when transmitting broadcast packets during concurrent slave enslave or release operations. A local user can trigger concurrent network interface state changes and packet transmission to cause a denial of service.

The issue arises because the determination of the last slave can change during RCU-protected iteration, leading to double consumption and double free of the original skb.


8) Use After Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-23351)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in the netfilter nft_set_pipapo component when handling a large number of expired elements during commit-time garbage collection. A local user can trigger prolonged non-preemptible execution to cause a denial of service.

Exploitation requires triggering garbage collection under a large number of expired elements, leading to soft lockup warnings and RCU stall reports.


9) Exposure of resource to wrong sphere (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-23274)

CWE-ID: CWE-668 - Exposure of resource to wrong sphere

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the netfilter xt_IDLETIMER module when processing timer rules with reused labels. A local user can insert a revision 0 IDLETIMER rule with a label that was previously used by a revision 1 rule with XT_IDLETIMER_ALARM, leading to modification of an uninitialized timer_list object, which can trigger debugobjects warnings and potentially cause a kernel panic when panic_on_warn=1 is enabled.

Exploitation requires the ability to load netfilter rules. The impact is limited to denial of service via system crash under specific kernel configurations.


10) Improper locking (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-50060)

CWE-ID: CWE-667 - Improper Locking

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper locking within the __io_cqring_overflow_flush() function in io_uring/io_uring.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


11) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-35862)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the smb2_is_network_name_deleted() function in fs/smb/client/smb2ops.c. A remote non-authenticated attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
