CVE-2026-53095

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. This vulnerability allows for the abuse of the kprobe_write_ctx mechanism through freplace in Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) kprobe programs. A local attacker could exploit this by attaching a freplace program to a kprobe program that is attached to a kernel function. This could lead to the modification of the kernel function's arguments, specifically setting the first argument to zero, potentially causing unexpected system behavior or impacting data integrity.

This CVE has been rated as Moderate because eBPF (and XDP) is restricted to root-only on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
