CVE-2026-74427
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Fix netns teardown to cancel the preallocation charger
Fix the teardown of an afs network namespace to make sure it cancels the work item that keeps the preallocated rxrpc call/conn/peer queue charged before incoming calls are disabled (i.e. listen 0).
Also, if net->live is false because the afs netns is being deleted, make afs_charge_preallocation() skip charging and make afs_rx_new_call() avoid requeuing the charger.

CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 9.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.76%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 54
- 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
T1190Exploit Public-Facing Applicationinitial access45 % - Impacto principal
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact35 % - Impacto secundario
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation30 %
AV:N/PR:N sugiere T1190 (aplicación de red expuesta), pero es parche defensivo sin PoC activo. Impactos potenciales: negación de servicio por agotamiento de recursos en la cola preasignada (T1499.004) y posible escalada tras consumo anómalo (T1068).
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.
