CVE-2025-38366
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: KVM: Check validity of "num_cpu" from user space
The maximum supported cpu number is EIOINTC_ROUTE_MAX_VCPUS about irqchip EIOINTC, here add validation about cpu number to avoid array pointer overflow.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.15%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 4
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
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.
- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation95 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution70 % - Impacto secundario
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact60 %
AV:L/PR:L/UI:N indica escalada de privilegios local. Array pointer overflow en KVM permite ejecución de código o denegación de servicio en el kernel.
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.
