CVE-2024-1065 is a physical-page use-after-free in the ARM Mali GPU kernel driver. Because the freed page lands in MIGRATE_MOVABLE, Dirty Pagetable and Dirty Cred do not apply — so this writeup uses a page-cache spray to swap the freed page into the in-memory copy of /usr/bin/passwd and gets root via execve() without touching disk. core-jmp.org/2026/06/cve-202… #ARMMaliGPU #ARM64 #CVE20241065 #DirtyPagetable #kernel #KernelExploit #KernelExploitation #KernelShellcode #KernelUAF #LinuxKernel #LinuxKernelExploitation #LocalPrivilegeEscalation #MaliExploitation #MIGRATE_MOVABLE #PageCacheCorruption #PageCacheExploitation #PhysicalPageUAF #PrivilegeEscalation #ProjectZero #shellcode #SUIDExploitation #UseAfterFree

We made co-located TCP up to 7x faster by adding a copy, not removing one. That sentence should bother you. Every performance engineer is trained to drive copies toward zero. So when we built bpf_sock_splice_pair(), a new BPF kfunc that splices two TCP sockets on the same machine (think service-mesh sidecars, loopback RPC, co-scheduled microservices), our first design did exactly that: a single direct user-to-user copy, the theoretical minimum for an unmodified sockets API. It was elegant. It was also the wrong tradeoff. A single copy forces the sender to write straight into the receiver's buffer, which means both sides have to meet at the same instant. That synchronous rendezvous quietly kills batching. The sender can never run ahead, so throughput is capped by handshake latency instead of memory bandwidth. The fix is a lesson queueing theory has taught for decades: to let a producer outrun a consumer, you need a buffer between them. A buffer costs a second copy, and that second copy is the price of decoupling. Decoupling enables batching, batching amortizes per-message overhead, and owning an in-kernel ring lets the receiver busy-poll, the one thing that finally cracks loopback latency. The result, measured with netperf at a realistic 1 KB request-response: - Loopback TCP_RR: 106k to 713k transactions/sec (6.7x) - Container TCP_RR: 100k to 705k transactions/sec (7.0x) - No application changes. No new address family. Just BPF pairing ordinary TCP sockets. We also benchmarked it against AF_SMC's shared-memory loopback, which independently arrived at the same "buffering enables batching" conclusion. Our two-copy ring still comes out ahead of its three-copy path. The full design story, the dead end we walked into first, and a comparison with AF_SMC: multikernel.io/2026/06/11/bp… The patchset is up as an RFC on the BPF and netdev lists.

CISA KEV 警告 26/06/02:Linux Kernel の脆弱性 CVE-2022-0492 を登録 iototsecnews.jp/2026/06/05/c… Linux カーネルの脆弱性 CVE-2022-0492 が、CISA の KEV カタログに登録されました。この問題の原因は、リソースを管理する cgroups v1 という仕組みの中で、認証や認可のチェックが不十分だったことにあります。この確認の不備を突く攻撃者は、release_agent という機能を悪用することで、本来は制限されているはずのコンテナの壁を越えて、ホストシステムの root 権限を奪う可能性を得ます。ご利用のチームは、ご注意ください。 #CISA #CVE20220492 #Exploit #KEV #LinuxKernel #Vulnerability

A PoC exploit for CVE-2026-46316, a critical Linux kernel vulnerability, enables guest-to-host escapes in KVM on arm64 systems. This flaw, dubbed 'ITScape,' allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the host with full kernel privileges. Security teams should apply patches immediately to mitigate this risk. #LinuxKernel #KVM #ITScape #CyberSecurity #Vulnerability #ARM64 thedailytechfeed.com/poc-exp…

🪟 CVE-2026-46293 is why “kernel panic” isn’t a vibe—it’s a spectrum. Out-of-bounds in a clock driver might be niche, but it screams: regressions everywhere, patch responsibly. #WindowsForum #Microsoft #Linux #CVE windowsforum.com/threads/cve… #LinuxKernel #Cve #EmbeddedSecurity

‼️A single misplaced character in the Linux kernel was all it took to open a path to ROOT access. Researchers analysed 𝗖𝗩𝗘-𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲-𝟮𝟯𝟭𝟭𝟭, a high-severity flaw in Linux’s nf_tables subsystem that can allow an unprivileged local user to escalate privileges to root and even escape containers. The vulnerability stems from a one-character logic error, proving how a tiny coding mistake can have massive security consequences. 🔥 No remote exploit on its own, but once an attacker gains a foothold, this bug can turn a low-privileged account into full system control. #Linux #CyberSecurity #InfoSec #Vulnerability #LinuxKernel #ThreatIntel #CVE202623111
