USN-8715-1: Linux kernel (Oracle) vulnerabilities
Siebe Devroe, Héloïse Gollier, and Mathy Vanhoef discovered that the WiFi implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle aggregated frames in mesh networks, due to an incorrect fix for CVE-2020-24588. A physically proximate attacker could use this issue to inject packets. (CVE-2025-27558) Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - x86 architecture; - Cryptographic API; - InfiniBand drivers; - Media drivers; - NVIDIA Tegra memory controller driver; - Network drivers; - NVME drivers; - File systems infrastructure; - Ext4 file system; - OCFS2 file system; - IPv4 networking; - Network traffic control; - TCP network protocol; - Locking primitives; - B.A.T.M.A.N. meshing protocol; - Ceph Core library; - IPv6 networking; - Multipath TCP; - Netfilter; - SCTP protocol; - SMC sockets; - TIPC protocol; (CVE-2021-47378, CVE-2026-23392, CVE-2026-31405, CVE-2026-31414, CVE-2026-31448, CVE-2026-31657, CVE-2026-31668, CVE-2026-43071, CVE-2026-43198, CVE-2026-43493, CVE-2026-43499, CVE-2026-46266, CVE-2026-46331, CVE-2026-52914, CVE-2026-52924, CVE-2026-52931, CVE-2026-52955, CVE-2026-52958, CVE-2026-52982, CVE-2026-52986, CVE-2026-52989, CVE-2026-52993, CVE-2026-52999, CVE-2026-53002, CVE-2026-53006, CVE-2026-53043, CVE-2026-53045, CVE-2026-53088, CVE-2026-53176, CVE-2026-53212, CVE-2026-53224, CVE-2026-53225, CVE-2026-53228, CVE-2026-53246, CVE-2026-53309, CVE-2026-53359)

Exploitation outlook
EPSS (FIRST.org) estimates each CVE’s probability of exploitation in the next 30 days — here is the CSIRTS.com read on those numbers.
- Moderate exploitation riskCVE-2020-245883.5% 30-day exploitation probability. Patch within normal cadence, watch for KEV listing. Riskier than 88% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2025-275580.29% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 21% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Moderate exploitation riskCVE-2021-473781.2% 30-day exploitation probability. Patch within normal cadence, watch for KEV listing. Riskier than 65% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-233920.12% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 2% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-314050.55% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 44% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-314140.40% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 33% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-314480.44% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 37% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-316570.40% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 33% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-316680.44% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 37% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
- Low exploitation riskCVE-2026-430710.39% 30-day exploitation probability — currently an unlikely target, but scores change as exploit code circulates. Riskier than 32% of all EPSS-scored CVEs.
