CVE-2026-72294
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: KVM: Check irq validity in kvm_vcpu_ioctl_interrupt()
Function kvm_vcpu_ioctl_interrupt() can be called from userspace, here add irq validility cheking in kvm_vcpu_ioctl_interrupt().
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: 0.18%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 6
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
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 Interpreterexecution75 % - Impacto secundario
T1498.001Direct Network Floodimpact60 %
Vulnerabilidad de privilegios locales en KVM (AV:L/PR:L) sin interacción del usuario. El fallo en validación de IRQ permite escalada (S:C, C:H/I:H/A:H). Impacto: ejecución de código y DoS en hipervisor afectando máquinas virtuales.
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.
