# `libseccomp` 2.6.1
## packaging changes
- Enable Python bindings on Fedora 44+
## upstream changes - July 1, 2026
- Update the syscall table for Linux v7.1.0-rc4
- Fix incorrect 64-bit comparison merge that can weaken libseccomp filters.
See GitHub Advisory
[GHSA-4q85-33p6-j5g6](https://github.com/seccomp/libseccomp/security/advisories/GHSA-4q85-33p6-j5g6)
- Fix issue where oversized libseccomp filters can trigger a double free.
See GitHub Advisory [GHSA-46fr-
jh49-xvhx](https://github.com/seccomp/libseccomp/security/advisories/GHSA-46fr-jh49-xvhx)
- Fix issue where oversized libseccomp filters can trigger a heap corruption.
See GitHub Advisory
[GHSA-2hqh-5c36-grrm](https://github.com/seccomp/libseccomp/security/advisories/GHSA-2hqh-5c36-grrm)
- Fix struct aliasing undefined behavior in the internal libseccomp hash
algorithm
- Fix issue where extraneous bytes were being copied to the destination
buffer in seccomp_export_bpf_mem()
- Fix a bug where merged libseccomp filters failed to merge the notify_used
flag, leading to no listener file descriptor being generated
- Update python shebang to point to python3
- Add documentation for seccomp_transaction_start()
- Since support for s390 has been removed from the upstream Linux kernel,
freeze libseccomp's s390 syscall table at Linux v6.18
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
