Astra Linux – Vulnerabilities in Linux, Linux-5.10, Linux-5.15, Linux-6.1

A speculative race condition SRC vulnerability that affects modern CPU architectures supporting speculative execution related to Spectre V1 has been disclosed. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to disclose arbitrary data from the CPU using race conditions to access the...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: errata: Add missing sentinel entries to Spectre-BHB MIDR arrays The commit a5951389e58d “arm64: errata: Add newer ARM cores to the spectrebhbloopaffected lists” added some additional CPUs to the Spectre-BHB workaround. Thi...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 5.15

The Linux kernel allows user-space processes to enable mitigations by calling prctl with PRSETSPECULATIONCTRL, which disables the speculation feature, as well as through the use of seccomp. We noticed that on virtual machines of at least one major cloud provider, the kernel still left the victim...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv4: Prevent potential spectre v1 gadgets in ipmetricsconvert if !type continue; if type RTAXMAX return -EINVAL; ... metricstype - 1 = val; @type is used as an array index, and we need to prevent CPU speculation or risk leaking...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux

A issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through version 5.11.x. The kernel/bpf/verifier.c file contains unwanted out-of-bounds speculation during pointer arithmetic operations, which allows for side-channel attacks that circumvent Spectre mitigations and extract sensitive information from kern...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/syscalls: Added a spectre boundary for the syscall dispatch table. The s390 syscall number is directly controlled by the user space, but there is no arrayindexnospec boundary to prevent access beyond the syscall function...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: xfrm/compat: prevented potential Spectre v1 exploits in xfrmxlate32attr int type = nlatypenla; if type XFRMAMAX return -EOPNOTSUPP; @type is then used as an array index and can be exploited as a Spectre v1 exploit. if nlalennl...

Astra Linux – Vulnerabilities in Linux 5.10, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm ioctl: prevents potential Spectre v1 exploits. It appears that cmd could be a Spectre v1 exploit, as it is provided by a user and used as an array index. This vulnerability prevents the contents of kernel memory from being...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 5.15

There is a vulnerability in the Linux Kernel within the KVM framework: nVMX, which allows for speculative execution attacks. L2 can execute Spectre v2 attacks on L1, as L1 believes it does not need retpolines or IBPB after executing L2, due to KVM L0 advertising eIBRS support to L1. An attacker a...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.15, Linux 6.1

The Cross-Privilege Spectre v2 vulnerability allows attackers to bypass all deployed mitigations, including the recently introduced FineIBT, and to leak arbitrary Linux kernel memory on Intel systems...

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a Chinese-speaking cybercrime group dubbed UAT-10147 that's targeting Windows and Linux web servers globally across the education, media, technology, and gaming sectors. The vast majority of the targets are located in Brazil, Bolivia, China,...

CVE-2026-74683

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Input: evdev - sanitize event type index when fetching event masks The user-supplied event type index passed to EVIOCGMASK / EVIOCSMASK ioctls is used to index the static counts array in evdevgetmaskcnt and client evmasks array i...

UAT-10147 deploys SPECTRE: A cross-platform implant with Linux rootkit and BYOVD capabilities

UAT-10147 is a highly capable Chinese-speaking intrusion actor operating a multi-platform post-exploitation ecosystem targeting IIS and Linux servers, combining search engine optimization SEO fraud monetization with advanced persistence and defense evasion techniques. The newly identified SPECTRE...
