Cybersecurity researchers have discovered 11 old, Microsoft-signed, Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) applications that could be abused to bypass Secure Boot on most systems using the modern firmware standard
Researchers at Nebula Security have disclosed GhostLock (CVE-2026-43499), a 15-year-old Linux kernel flaw that lets any logged-in user take full root control of a machine that has not been patched
DirtyClone: a Linux kernel privilege escalation that silently rewrites executables in memory, leaving no disk trace. Patch now. JFrog Security Research published a working exploit walkthrough on June 25 for CVE-2026-43503 (CVSS score of 8.8), a Linux kernel privilege escalation they call DirtyClone. It’s the fourth vulnerability in the DirtyFrag family, all sharing the same […]
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a vulnerability in the Linux kernel that remained undetected for nine years
No Patches Yet Available, After Third Party Published Vulnerability DetailsSecurity researchers have discovered a new, critical flaw in the Linux kernel that attackers can exploit to gain root access. No patches are yet available to fix "Dirty Frag," the second new local privilege escalation flaw to be found in two weeks, following the similar "Copy Fail" vulnerability.
The actively exploited defect could affect every mainstream Linux distribution built since 2017, but some researchers found Theori’s AI-generated disclosure unhelpful and lacking. The post ‘Copy Fail’ is a real Linux security crisis wrapped in AI slop appeared first on CyberScoop.
CISA has warned that threat actors have started exploiting the "Copy Fail" Linux security vulnerability in the wild, one day after Theori researchers disclosed it and shared a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit. [...]
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a Linux local privilege escalation (LPE) flaw that could allow an unprivileged local user to obtain root
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed multiple security vulnerabilities within the Linux kernel's AppArmor module that could be exploited by unprivileged users to circumvent kernel protections, escalate to root, and undermine container isolation guarantees
Check Point Research has reported a surge in attacks on a vulnerability in HPE OneView, driven by the Linux-based RondoDox botnet
The security vulnerability known as React2Shell is being exploited by threat actors to deliver malware families like KSwapDoor and ZnDoor, according to findings from Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 and NTT Security
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a new campaign that exploited a recently disclosed security flaw impacting Cisco IOS Software and IOS XE Software to deploy Linux rootkits on older, unprotected systems
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed vulnerabilities in select model webcams from Lenovo that could turn them into BadUSB attack devices
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed two security flaws in the Sudo command-line utility for Linux and Unix-like operating systems that could enable local attackers to escalate their privileges to root on susceptible machines
Cybersecurity researchers have uncovered two local privilege escalation (LPE) flaws that could be exploited to gain root privileges on machines running major Linux distributions
Two information disclosure flaws have been identified in apport and systemd-coredump, the core dump handlers in Ubuntu, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Fedora, according to the Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU)
Vulnerability Researchers: Start Tracking LLM Capabilities, Says Veteran Bug HunterLarge language models have taken a big step forward in their ability to help chase down code flaws, said a vulnerability researcher who successfully trained OpenAI's o3 to review Linux kernel code, leading to the LLM - in an apparent first - discovering a new zero-day vulnerability in the code.
Cybersecurity researchers are calling attention to a new Linux cryptojacking campaign that's targeting publicly accessible Redis servers
Researchers discovered over 3000 Linux vulnerabilities in 2024, the most of any category
Attackers Can Employ a Vulnerable Driver to Target Most Windows and Linux SystemsResearchers are warning Microsoft Windows as well as many Linux distribution users to install updates that revoke permissions for a vulnerable driver that attackers can use to target most systems, allowing them to bypass UEFI Secure Boot and install a bootkit to take full control of a system.
