Researcher Says AI Helped Develop Linux Traffic-Control Race Into Root Exploit
STAR Labs has published a Linux kernel exploit that turns an ordinary local user into root on the CentOS Stream 9 build it targeted. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-53264 CVSS score: 7.8, is a use-after-free race in the kernel's network traffic-control subsystem. Researcher Lee Jia Jie said...
kernel: net: bridge: use a stable FDB dst snapshot in RCU readers
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. Inconsistent handling of local Forwarding Database FDB entries in the bridge networking component's RCU Read-Copy-Update readers can lead to a null-pointer dereference. A local attacker could exploit this by triggering a concurrent update to an FDB entry,...
kernel: tipc: fix double-free in tipc_buf_append()
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Transparent Inter-Process Communication TIPC module. This vulnerability, a double-free, occurs when the tipcbufappend function incorrectly handles memory after a socket buffer skb reallocation. An attacker could potentially exploit this to cause system...
USN-8620-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
Maxim Suhanov discovered that the NTFS file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate file name length in certain situations, leading to an out-of-bounds read. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious NTFS image that, when mounted and operated on, could expose...
