CVE-2026-72460

Опубликовано: 15 авг. 2026
Источник: redhat
CVSS3: 5.5

Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: apparmor: check label build before no_new_privs test aa_change_profile() builds a replacement label with fn_label_build_in_scope() before the no_new_privs subset check. The build helper can fail and return NULL or an ERR_PTR, but the result was passed to aa_label_is_unconfined_subset() before the existing IS_ERR_OR_NULL() check. Reuse the existing target-label build failure handling immediately after the build. This preserves the current audit handling while preventing the subset helper from dereferencing an invalid label.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AppArmor security module. When changing a security profile, the aa_change_profile() function might attempt to use an invalid security label before properly checking if the label was successfully created. This oversight could allow a local attacker to trigger a system crash by causing the kernel to access an invalid memory location, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
