USN-8374-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

It was discovered that the Linux kernel algifaead module did not properly handle in-place cryptographic operations. This flaw is known as Copy Fail. A local attacker could use this to escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. CVE-2026-31431 It was discovered that the Linux kernel did n...

PT-2026-08: Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerabilities in the Linux Kernel (Dirty Frag)

This security advisory provides information regarding Linux kernel vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-43284 and CVE-2026-43500 , informally known as Dirty Frag. These vulnerabilities allow for local privilege escalation to the superuser root level and affect the Linux kernel modules: esp4 , esp6 and rxrpc...

Metasploit Wrap Up 05/29/2026

More Linux LPEs Hark the age of the Linux LPE has arrived. This week’s release follows up on recent work bringing new Linux LPEs to Metasploit users. Copy Fail seemed to have kicked off a trend of similar bugs and hot on its heels is Dirty Frag. Dirty Frag is actually two vulnerabilities in a...

About Elevation of Privilege - Linux Kernel "Fragnesia" (CVE-2026-46300) vulnerability

About Elevation of Privilege - Linux Kernel "Fragnesia" CVE-2026-46300 vulnerability. The vulnerability was discovered by researcher William Bowling together with the V12 team. Fragnesia belongs to the class of Dirty Frag vulnerabilities. It is an error in the ESP/XFRM subsystem, distinct from...

kernel: "Fragnesia" is a variant of Dirty Frag vulnerability in the ESP/XFRM leading to Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) vulnerability in the Linux kernel

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem. Unsafe in-place cryptographic processing allows a low-privileged local attacker to write arbitrary bytes into the page cache of read-only files, including sensitive system files. An attacker can exploit this to overwrite privileged...
