CVE-2025-21703

Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—

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

netem: Update sch->q.qlen before qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()

qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() notifies parent qdisc only if child qdisc becomes empty, therefore we need to reduce the backlog of the child qdisc before calling it. Otherwise it would miss the opportunity to call cops->qlen_notify(), in the case of DRR, it resulted in UAF since DRR uses ->qlen_notify() to maintain its active list.

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) con privilegios de usuario (PR:L) sin interacción (UI:N) en kernel Linux (CWE-416, uso después de liberación). Permite escalada a código arbitrario (C:H, I:H, A:H). El UAF en la gestión de qdisc posibilita ejecución remota desde contexto con privilegios limitados.

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.
