2026-005: High Vulnerability in the Linux Kernel ("Copy Fail")
Linux kernel flaw CVE-2026-31431 ('Copy Fail', CVSS 7.8) allows unprivileged users to gain root via AF_ALG; a public PoC is out and most distros remain unpatched.
Disclosed on 29 April 2026, CVE-2026-31431 is a local privilege escalation in the Linux kernel's algif_aead module (AF_ALG crypto API), CVSS 7.8, stemming from a 2017 in-place optimisation. By chaining an AF_ALG socket operation with splice(), an unprivileged user can write 4 bytes into an arbitrary page-cache page, e.g. corrupting a setuid binary like /usr/bin/su to obtain a root shell. It affects virtually all kernels built since 2017, including Ubuntu 20.04-24.04, Amazon Linux 2023, RHEL 10.1, and SUSE 16; the mainline fix landed 1 April 2026 but no vendor packages were available as of 30 April. CERT-EU recommends the interim mitigation (disable algif_aead) and blocking AF_ALG via seccomp, prioritising Kubernetes nodes and CI/CD runners.

Previously patched Citrix NetScaler flaw exploited in the wild (CVE-2026-8452)
Actively exploited Citrix NetScaler flaw CVE-2026-8452, patched in June, now added to CISA KEV; attackers deploy web shells and run discovery commands.
CISA added CVE-2026-8452, a memory overflow vulnerability in Citrix NetScaler ADC/Gateway, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on August 26, 2026, giving federal agencies until August 29 to remediate. Citrix disclosed and patched the flaw on June 30, 2026 in versions 14.1-72.61, 13.1-63.18, and 13.1-37.272. watchTowr Labs found the flaw can be chained into unauthenticated remote code execution and released a PoC on August 14. Previdian and Defused reported exploitation with web shells named x.php and z.php from at least three unique source IPs.
