Use-after-free in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-31532

Published: April 24, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU127616
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 6.8 [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]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31532
CWE-ID: CWE-416
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in raw_rcv() when processing CAN frames after a raw CAN socket is released. A local user can trigger concurrent socket release and packet reception to cause a denial of service.

The issue involves the percpu uniq storage referenced through RCU-delayed receiver deletion.
