CVE-2025-40364
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring: fix io_req_prep_async with provided buffers
io_req_prep_async() can import provided buffers, commit the ring state by giving up on that before, it'll be reimported later if needed.
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: 0.29%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 19
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
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 escalation85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution70 % - Impacto secundario
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact60 %
AV:L/PR:L sin UI:N indica escalada local de privilegios (T1068). io_uring es mecanismo kernel Linux que permite ejecución código o DoS; confianza moderada por descripción técnica sin detalles de explotación.
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.
