CVE-2026-52988
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: join hook list via splice_list_rcu() in commit phase
Publish new hooks in the list into the basechain/flowtable using splice_list_rcu() to ensure netlink dump list traversal via rcu is safe while concurrent ruleset update is going on.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.1
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.17%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 5
- 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
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact75 % - Impacto secundario
T1005Data from Local Systemcollection60 %
AV:L/PR:L sin UI permite escalada de privilegios local. La condición de carrera en netfilter causa DoS (A:H) y posible lectura de memoria del kernel (C:H).
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.
