libkcapi: IV reuse in libkcapi one-shot symmetric cipher chunking causes cipher state reset across chunk boundaries

A flaw was found in libkcapi. When performing one-shot symmetric cipher operations on large inputs over 64 KiB in stateful modes such as Counter CTR or Cipher Block Chaining CBC, the library improperly reuses the Initialization Vector IV for each internal data chunk. A remote attacker could...

OESA-2026-3575 libkcapi security update

The Linux kernel exports a Netlink interface of type AFALG to allow user space to utilize the kernel crypto API. libkcapi uses this Netlink interface and exports easy to use APIs so that a developer does not need to consider the low-level Netlink interface handling. The library does not implement...
