New Zapscape KVM Flaw Could Let Privileged L1 Guest Code Escape to Linux Hosts

Zapscape , a new Linux kernel vulnerability, could allow an attacker with kernel privileges inside an L1 guest virtual machine VM to escape KVM isolation and execute code on the host. The risk applies when nested virtualization is exposed to untrusted guests. The flaw is tracked as CVE-2026-64561...

CVE-2026-68480

The CVE-2026-68480 entry describes a Linux kernel issue where an attacker could inject interrupts during Safe-RET mitigation execution on SRSO-enabled systems, potentially causing data leakage via speculative execution. The root cause is that the interrupt could disrupt the Safe-RET sequence; the...

New Interrupt Injection Attack Can Bypass Spectre v2 Defenses on Intel and AMD CPUs

An unprivileged Linux program can time a hardware interrupt to land in the gap between a processor sanitizing its branch predictor and the kernel using it, re-poisoning the predictor after the defense has run. MIT CSAIL researchers Daniël Trujillo and Mengjia Yan named the technique INTERRUPT...

CVE-2026-64570

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Wi-Fi subsystem mac80211. A double-free vulnerability exists in the handling of FILS Fast Initial Link Setup Discovery frames. When an allocation failure occurs during the update of a FILS Discovery template, the same memory region can be freed twice. This c...

CVE-2026-64582

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's RDMA/rxe component. A race condition in the rxemmap function, which manages memory for Remote Direct Memory Access RDMA operations, can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could exploit this timing issue to cause a system crash, resultin...

CVE-2026-64576

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. During nexthop resolution, an uninitialized variable is used if a memory allocation fails. This can lead to the system attempting to access uninitialized stack memory, causing a general protection fault and a kernel panic. This vulnerability results in a Deni...

CVE-2026-64573

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth subsystem, specifically within the qca driver. A local attacker could exploit an integer underflow vulnerability in the NVM tag length parser by providing specially crafted firmware data. This could lead to an out-of-bounds memory write, potentiall...

CVE-2026-64577

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's GPRS Tunnelling Protocol GTP module. This vulnerability occurs because the gtp1usendechoresp function does not properly check the return value when processing certain echo requests. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted echo request, causing the...

CVE-2026-64575

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A double release of socket resources can occur during batch reallocation in the BPF Berkeley Packet Filter TCP iterator. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to trigger a kernel panic. This leads to a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Servic...

kernel: futex: Fix UaF between futex_key_to_node_opt() and vma_replace_policy()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A timing issue, known as a race condition, exists within the futex subsystem. This vulnerability could allow a local attacker to access memory after it has been freed, leading to a system crash denial of service or potentially the disclosure of sensitive...

CVE-2026-64572

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv4 forwarding information base FIB component. A local attacker with administrative network capabilities CAPNETADMIN could exploit a timing issue during route insertion and lookup operations. This could lead to a "use-after-free" vulnerability, where the...

CVE-2026-64578

A flaw was found in ksmbd, a Linux kernel module that provides an in-kernel SMB3 server. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious compound SMB2 request. This improper validation of the request size before reading specific data could lead to an out-of-bounds read,...

CVE-2026-64571

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's wifi: p54 component. A local attacker with a malicious USB device could exploit this by sending a specially crafted frame during an EEPROM Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory readback operation. This vulnerability allows the device to read...
