U.S. CISA adds Red Hat, Linux Kernel, Ajax.NET Professional, Microsoft SQL Server, and Citrix NetScaler flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog

CISA added six flaws, including actively exploited CVE-2026-8452 in Citrix NetScaler, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog with federal patch deadlines.

CISA added six vulnerabilities to its KEV catalog: CVE-2015-3246 and CVE-2015-5287 (Red Hat libuser race condition and ABRT privilege escalation), CVE-2019-1068 (Microsoft SQL Server RCE), CVE-2021-23758 (Ajax.NET Professional deserialization), CVE-2022-0995 (Linux Kernel out-of-bounds write) and CVE-2026-8452 (Citrix NetScaler ADC/Gateway memory buffer flaw). CVE-2026-8452 has been observed under active exploitation in the wild and can cause denial-of-service. Under BOD 22-01, federal civilian agencies must patch CVE-2019-1068 and CVE-2026-8452 by August 29, 2026, and the rest by September 9, 2026.

Re: Linux kernel LPEs: ZcopyReaper (CVE-2026-43502) and 20 more

Linux kernel developers discuss a batch of 21 local privilege escalation CVEs, including ZcopyReaper (CVE-2026-43502) in the RDS networking driver.

An oss-security thread examines newly published Linux kernel local privilege escalation issues tracked in the kernel.org security vulnerabilities git repository. CVE-2026-43502, dubbed ZcopyReaper, affects the net/rds (Reliable Datagram Sockets) subsystem. The discussion references roughly 20 additional kernel LPE CVEs published in the 2026 Q3 window.

Re: Linux kernel LPEs: ZcopyReaper (CVE-2026-43502) and 20 more

oss-security thread discusses newly disclosed Linux kernel local privilege escalations, including ZcopyReaper (CVE-2026-43502) and about 20 more flaws.

An oss-security mailing list thread discusses newly disclosed Linux kernel local privilege escalation (LPE) issues, headlined by ZcopyReaper (CVE-2026-43502) along with roughly 20 more. Discussants ask whether the many reports could be summarized and note that locking kernel module loading after boot has repeatedly proven an effective mitigation. The visible discussion does not state whether any of the flaws are exploited in the wild or give specific patch guidance beyond the individual reports.

ZDI-26-686: Linux Kernel nftables Race Condition Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

ZDI discloses CVE-2026-74565, a CVSS 7.8 nftables race condition letting local low-privileged attackers escalate privileges on Linux.

ZDI-26-686 describes a race condition in the Linux Kernel nftables subsystem that allows local attackers to escalate privileges. Exploitation requires the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system. ZDI assigned a CVSS rating of 7.8 and CVE-2026-74565.

New IoT Malware Uses Public Linux Exploits to Gain Root and Launch DDoS Attacks

Nozomi details KATARU, an IoT botnet that brute-forces Telnet, exploits public Linux kernel flaws for root access, and launches multi-protocol DDoS attacks.

KATARU, discovered after honeypot Telnet brute-force activity from a Vietnamese IP, downloads an ARM payload (vlxx.arm) and attempts privilege escalation by editing /etc/passwd or exploiting CVE-2026-46300 (Fragnesia), CVE-2026-43284 (Dirty Frag), and CVE-2026-31431 (Copy Fail). It combines Mirai-style TCP, UDP, ICMP, HTTP, QUIC and DNS floods with application attacks against Minecraft, FiveM, OpenVPN and WireGuard. The malware uses X25519 and ChaCha20-Poly1305 encrypted C2, unusually broad persistence across systemd, cron, init frameworks, and Android hooks, plus anti-debugging and decoy traffic to hinder analysis. Implementers copied x86 shellcode into the ARM binary and reused an RFC 7748 test-vector key, indicating low-quality but rapidly evolving commodity development.

USN-8726-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Ubuntu issued kernel security update USN-8726-1 fixing an Arm TLB invalidation flaw (CVE-2025-10263) that enables local privilege escalation, plus other kernel fixes.

Ubuntu released USN-8726-1, a security update for the generic Linux kernel. It fixes CVE-2025-10263, where certain Arm processors complete broadcast TLB invalidation before related memory writes are globally observed, potentially letting local attackers bypass memory protections or escalate privileges. The update also addresses additional kernel flaws in ARM64, ARM32, RISC-V, S390 and other subsystems.

USN-8727-1: Linux kernel (OEM) vulnerabilities

Ubuntu issued kernel security update USN-8727-1 for OEM kernels, fixing an Arm TLB invalidation flaw (CVE-2025-10263) allowing local privilege escalation.

Ubuntu released USN-8727-1, a security update for the OEM variant of the Linux kernel. It fixes CVE-2025-10263, in which certain Arm processors complete broadcast TLB invalidation before related memory writes are globally observed, potentially letting local attackers bypass memory protections or escalate privileges. The notice also corrects additional kernel flaws across ARM64, ARM32, RISC-V, S390 and other subsystems.
