CVE-2026-52971

Estado: AnalizadaAlta (7.8)—

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

net: ena: PHC: Fix potential use-after-free in get_timestamp

Move the phc->active check and resp pointer assignment to after acquiring the spinlock. Previously, phc->active was checked without holding the lock, and resp was cached from ena_dev->phc.virt_addr before the lock was acquired.

If ena_com_phc_destroy() runs between the lockless active check and the lock acquisition, it sets active=false, releases the lock, frees the DMA memory, and sets virt_addr=NULL. The get_timestamp path would then read a NULL virt_addr and dereference it.

With both the active check and the pointer read under the lock, destroy cannot free the memory while get_timestamp is using it.

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 accesible desde privilegios locales (AV:L/PR:L). Permite ejecutar código con permisos elevados tras liberar memoria y desreferencia en controlador ENA.

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.
