NVD description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg Issuing two writes to the same af_alg socket is bogus as the data will be interleaved in an unpredictable fashion. Furthermore, concurrent writes may create inconsistencies in the internal socket state. Disallow this by adding a new ctx->write field that indiciates exclusive ownership for writing.

9.5/ 10 priority

    🚨 ROOT ON YOUR LINUX BOXES: Check your kernels right now. CISA just threw multiple Linux privilege escalation bugs (CVE-2026-53266, CVE-2025-39964, CVE-2025-39682) into the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog under emergency mandates. What’s happening? Attackers who already have unprivileged shell access are exploiting memory corruption bugs—specifically an out-of-bounds write in the ebtables network rewrite path and race conditions in socket handling—to jump straight from low-level access to full root or crash host servers into a denial of service. How to detect it: • Hunt for unprivileged accounts spawning unexpected root shells via auditd (execve where uid > 1000 spawns euid=0). • Check dmesg / kernel logs for memory panics, segfaults around ebtables, or socket teardown stack traces. • Watch for anomalous process trees emerging from unprivileged web service users (e.g., www-data invoking /bin/bash as root). How to mitigate: • Patch immediately: Apply the latest kernel updates from your distro vendor (RHEL, Ubuntu, Debian, SUSE) and reboot. • Disable unprivileged user namespaces if not strictly needed: sysctl -w kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=0 (or user.max_user_namespaces=0). • Restrict ebtables / network namespace access to trusted admins via SELinux/AppArmor policies. Indicators of Compromise (IoCs): • File System / Ephemeral Execution: High-entropy or packed ELF executables executing from /dev/shm/, /tmp/, or /var/tmp/ with subsequent setuid(0) calls. Unexpected creation of persistent suid binaries: find / -perm -4000 -exec ls -ld {} +. • Audit & Telemetry Signatures: auditd event logs showing non-root processes invoking unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER) or clone(CLONE_NEWUSER). Kernel ring buffer (dmesg) crashes with tainted flags (kernel NULL pointer dereference, ebtables: table entry out of bounds, or socket refcount underflows). • Behavioral Traces: YARA Rule: rule Linux_Kernel_LPE_Exploit_Artifacts { meta: description = "Detects generic local privilege escalation artifacts targeting kernel socket/ebtables" author = "SecOps" severity = "high" strings: $s1 = "/sbin/ebtables" ascii $s2 = "/proc/self/ns/user" ascii $S3 = "commit_creds" ascii $s4 = "prepare_kernel_cred" ascii $elf = { 7F 45 4C 46 } condition: $elf at 0 and ($s1 or $s2) and ($S3 or $s4) and filesize < 5MB } Low-privilege service accounts (www-data, nobody, container runtimes) spawning /bin/sh, /bin/bash, or python interactive pty shells with uid=0. Audit your clusters today—once an attacker gets a foothold, local root is practically instant. #CyberSecurity #Linux #Infosec #ZeroDay #ThreatIntel #PatchTuesday #CISA

    Active Exploitation

    A 14-year-old Linux kernel flaw can now be exploited to gain ROOT access. And in certain Docker environments, it can potentially let an attacker escape the container and compromise the host. The vulnerability is CVE-2025-39964, a race condition in Linux's AF_ALG cryptographic interface. The vulnerable code was introduced back in Linux 2.6.38 in 2011 and remained exposed for roughly 14 years. Security researcher Muhammad Alifa Ramdhan discovered the issue while auditing the Linux kernel for Google's kernelCTF program. The bug allows two threads to interact with the same AF_ALG socket at the wrong time, causing the kernel's internal state to become inconsistent. Researchers turned that race condition into an out-of-bounds access and ultimately developed a way to gain arbitrary kernel write access. The exploit then targets core_pattern, a Linux kernel setting that controls how core dumps are handled. By manipulating it and triggering a crash, the proof of concept can execute attacker-controlled code with ROOT privileges. But it gets even more interesting with containers. Docker containers share the host's Linux kernel. So if an attacker can exploit the vulnerable kernel from inside an affected container, the same kernel-level primitive can potentially be used to escape the container and gain root access to the host. The researchers developed the exploit for Google's kernelCTF program and reportedly received a $113,337 reward. CVE-2025-39964 is also listed in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. If you manage Linux servers or container infrastructure: • Update your kernel through your Linux distribution • Reboot into the patched kernel • Prioritize container hosts and shared infrastructure • Check systems where untrusted local code can execute • Verify that the running kernel actually contains the fix A vulnerability doesn't have to be new to become dangerous. Sometimes the biggest story is what was hiding in the code for years. 🔗 Full technical research: https://idnsec.com/research/linux-local-privilege-escalation-with-af-alg/ 🔗 Google kernelCTF research: https://github.com/google/security-research/tree/master/pocs/linux/kernelctf/CVE-2025-39964_lts_cos_mitigation 🔗 Linux CVE advisory: https://lists.openwall.net/linux-cve-announce/2025/10/13/2 #Linux

    The text reports on CVE-2025-39964, a Linux kernel race condition, explicitly noting its inclusion in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog as evidence of exploitation. It details the exploit mechanism (AF_ALG race, core_pattern), links to a PoC, and recommends kernel updates.

    A kernel mitigation that breaks an unused interface can be excellent. The same mitigation applied to a hidden dependency can become an outage. Red Hat lists preventing the `af_alg` module from loading as a mitigation for CVE-2025-39964. That is useful only after confirming the workload does not depend on it. **In practical terms, it is a good time to:** • identify whether `af_alg` is modular or built into the running kernel • test application crypto paths before blacklisting the module • record the mitigation as temporary and track replacement with a fixed kernel #LinuxSecurity #LinuxHardening #KernelSecurity https://linuxsecurity.com/news/hackscracks/actively-exploited-linux-af-alg-cve-2025-39964

    Post summary

    The text notes that Red Hat recommends mitigating CVE-2025-39964 by blocking the af_alg module while also indicating the vulnerability is actively exploited via a linked article. It advises checking module usage and planning a fixed kernel deployment.

    CISA gave federal agencies three days to patch three Linux kernel flaws. CVE-2025-39682 at CVSS 9.8 in the TLS receive path. CVE-2025-39964 in AF_ALG sockets. CVE-2026-53266 in ebtables SNAT. Two of the three are 2025 CVEs. The fixes are old, the exploitation isn't. #Linux https://t.co/Ob8m8dbJ8v

    Post summary

    CISA has mandated a three-day patch deadline for three high-severity Linux kernel vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-39682, CVE-2025-39964, CVE-2026-53266), noting that while the fixes are old, active exploitation is ongoing.
