CVE-2026-64439

Estado: AnalizadaCrítica (9.8)—

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

crypto: krb5 - filter out async aead implementations at alloc

krb5_aead_encrypt(), krb5_aead_decrypt() in rfc3961_simplified.c and rfc8009_encrypt(), rfc8009_decrypt() in rfc8009_aes2.c set a NULL completion callback and treat any negative return from crypto_aead_{encrypt,decrypt}() as terminal, falling through to kfree_sensitive(buffer). When the encrypt_name resolves to an async AEAD instance the request returns -EINPROGRESS, the buffer is freed while the backend's worker still holds a pointer, and the worker dereferences the freed slab on completion.

Leer descripción completaMostrar menos

The helpers were written synchronously, so filter the async instances out at allocation time instead of plumbing crypto_wait_req() through every call site.

Reachable via net/rxrpc/rxgk.c, fs/afs/cm_security.c and net/ceph/crypto.c on systems with an async AEAD provider bound to the krb5 enctype name.

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 de use-after-free (CWE-416) en kernel Linux explotable remotamente sin autenticación (AV:N, PR:N, UI:N). Alcance T1190 por red sin privilegios; impactos: escalada local (deref en contexto kernel → privilegios elevados) y ejecución de código arbitrario desde buffer del atacante.

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.
