Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-27 15:33 – Updated: 2026-08-17 12:32

Details
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix potential UAF after skb_unshare() failure
If skb_unshare() fails to unshare a packet due to allocation failure in rxrpc_input_packet(), the skb pointer in the parent (rxrpc_io_thread()) will be NULL'd out. This will likely cause the call to trace_rxrpc_rx_done() to oops.
Fix this by moving the unsharing down to where rxrpc_input_call_event() calls rxrpc_input_call_packet(). There are a number of places prior to that where we ignore DATA packets for a variety of reasons (such as the call already being complete) for which an unshare is then avoided.
And with that, rxrpc_input_packet() doesn't need to take a pointer to the pointer to the packet, so change that to just a pointer.

Details
Memory safety bugs present in Firefox ESR 115.33, Firefox ESR 140.8, Thunderbird ESR 140.8, Firefox 148 and Thunderbird 148. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 149, Firefox ESR < 115.34, and Firefox ESR < 140.9.

GHSA-MP35-P2HC-V59Q
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-24 18:32 – Updated: 2026-07-27 15:32
VLAI
Details
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/dma-buf: fix UAF with retry loop
Retry doesn't work here, since bo will be freed on error, leading to UAF. However, now that we do the alloc & init before the attach, we can now combine this as one unit and have the init do the alloc for us. This should make the retry safe.
Reported by Sashiko.
v2: Fix up the error unwind (CI)

GHSA-PG25-7CX5-CVCM
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-13 18:30 – Updated: 2026-08-10 15:33
VLAI
Details
Use-after-free (UAF) was possible in the lzma.LZMADecompressor, bz2.BZ2Decompressor, and gzip.GzipFile when a memory allocation fails with a MemoryError and the decompression instance is re-used. This scenario can be triggered if the process is under memory pressure. The fix cleans up the dangling pointer in this specific error condition.
The vulnerability is only present if the program re-uses decompressor instances across multiple decompression calls even after a MemoryError is raised during decompression. Using the helper functions to one-shot decompress data such as lzma.decompress(), bz2.decompress(), gzip.decompress(), and zlib.decompress() are not affected as a new decompressor instance is used per call. If the decompressor instance is not re-used after an error condition, this usage is similarly not vulnerable.

Summary
Nokogiri: Possible Use-After-Free when setting an attribute value via `Nokogiri::XML::Attr#value=` or `#content=`
Details
Summary
Nokogiri’s CRuby native extension could leave a Ruby wrapper pointing to freed memory when replacing the value of an XML attribute. If Ruby code had already accessed an attribute child node, Nokogiri::XML::Attr#value= could free the underlying native child node while the wrapper remained reachable through the document node cache. A later use of the freed child node or a Ruby GC mark could dereference an invalid pointer, causing an invalid read and a possible segfault.
Nokogiri 1.19.4 preserves any already-wrapped attribute child nodes before replacing the attribute value.
JRuby is not affected.
Severity
The Nokogiri maintainers have evaluated this as low severity. Reaching it requires an unusual API-usage pattern that does not arise during normal use. The application must directly access an attribute's child node and then replace that same attribute's value via Attr#value= or #content=. Nokogiri 1.19.4 makes this pattern safe with no change to the public API. Already-wrapped attribute child nodes are preserved before the value is replaced.
Mitigation
Upgrade to Nokogiri 1.19.4 or later.
As a workaround, avoid accessing attribute child nodes directly via Attr#child or similar before mutating the same attribute’s value.

A heap use-after-free existed when importing the blank-width characters of an ODF number format. A position value read from the document was not checked against the length of the format-code string, so a malformed number format could be processed against memory outside that string.

A flaw was found in the kernel. An unprivileged local user can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code within the kernel, which leads to a local privilege escalation (LPE). This allows the attacker to gain root privileges and take full control of the affected system.

Summary
CoreWCF: UnixDomainSocket Non-Reentrant POSIX Identity Resolution
Details
Impact
Race condition in POSIX peer identity resolution may attribute one connection’s identity to another (getpwuid/getgrgid non-reentrant) and may crash the host process under contention.
Patches
Fixed in CoreWCF v1.8.1 and v1.9.1
Workarounds
Restrict UDS filesystem permissions so that only trusted local users can connect to the socket path. The race still exists but the attacker pool is constrained.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design
Choose a language that provides automatic memory management.
Mitigation
Implementation
When freeing pointers, be sure to set them to NULL once they are freed. However, the utilization of multiple or complex data structures may lower the usefulness of this strategy.
No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
