K000162740: Linux kernel vulnerability CVE-2026-63803

Security Advisory Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hdlcppp: sync per-proto timers before freeing hdlc state Each PPP control protocol LCP/IPCP/IPV6CP embedded in struct ppp registers a timer via timersetup. That struct ppp is the hdlc-state allocatio...

CVE-2026-44099

CVE-2026-44099 is a local privilege escalation. Connected sources describe a vulnerability enabling a low-privilege local user to gain root privileges via manipulation of system configuration, specifically cited as Local Privilege Escalation via pppd password injection. The NVD entry reiterates t...

CVE-2026-63803

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's hdlcppp module. This use-after-free vulnerability occurs because the Point-to-Point Protocol PPP control timers are not properly synchronized before the associated memory is freed. An attacker could potentially exploit this by triggering a race condition,...

CVE-2026-63803

The CVE-2026-63803 has concrete technical details in the Linux kernel: hdlc_ppp timers for PPP LCP/IPCP/IPV6CP in struct ppp are not synchronized on teardown due to a missing .detach callback, causing a use-after-free when a ppp_timer dereferences freed memory. The fix adds a detach helper that c...
