CVE-2025-21759

Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: mcast: extend RCU protection in igmp6_send()

igmp6_send() can be called without RTNL or RCU being held.

Extend RCU protection so that we can safely fetch the net pointer and avoid a potential UAF.

Note that we no longer can use sock_alloc_send_skb() because ipv6.igmp_sk uses GFP_KERNEL allocations which can sleep.

Instead use alloc_skb() and charge the net->ipv6.igmp_sk socket under RCU protection.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

Vulnerabilidad local (AV:L, PR:L) de use-after-free (CWE-416) en kernel que permite escalada sin interacción. El UAF permite ejecución de código elevado desde contexto sin privilegios.

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
