CVE-2026-53188
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: Validate the passed in fops for ib_get_ucaps()
Sashiko pointed out it is not safe to rely only on the devt because char/block alias so if the user finds a block device with the same dev_t it can masquerade as a ucap cdev fd.
Test the f_ops to only accept authentic cdevs.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 8.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.13%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 2
- Fecha de la puntuación: 4/10/2026
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).
