page-cache-corruption-lpes

Page Cache Corruption LPEs 3 Linux kernel local privilege escalation exploits. Same bug class as Dirty COW and Dirty Pipe. Root shell in seconds. Every major distro affected. All three corrupt the kernel's page cache — the in-memory copy of files that processes actually read and execute. The...

kernel: Linux kernel: Use-After-Free in net/gro due to improper handling of zerocopy skbs

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Generic Receive Offload GRO networking subsystem. This vulnerability occurs when skbgroreceive attempts to merge zerocopy socket buffers skbs without properly managing page reference counts, specifically when the SKBFLMANAGEDFRAGREFS flag is set. An attacker...

CVE-2026-80725

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s Generic Receive Offload GRO component, which handles network packet aggregation. Improper validation of BIG TCP aggregation criteria allows a remote attacker to send specially crafted network frames. This can lead to an out-of-bounds write when processing IP...
