CVE-2026-81579 Aug 27, 07:42 HIGH PATCH This Week

Local privilege escalation in WibuKey for Windows before 6.71 allows any low-privileged local user to gain full SYSTEM-level control by exploiting a write-what-where primitive in the WibuKey2_64.sys kernel driver. The root cause is an untrusted pointer dereference (CWE-123) in the 64-bit kernel driver, meaning attacker-controlled data is used directly as a kernel-space pointer, enabling arbitrary writes into kernel memory - a classic and highly reliable LPE primitive. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE does not appear in the CISA KEV catalog.

CVE-2026-20469 Aug 03, 02:05 MEDIUM This Month

Privilege escalation in MediaTek's trusted_mem subsystem affects nine specific chipset models (MT8365, MT8186, MT8188, MT8195, MT8370, MT8371, MT8390, MT8391, MT8395) through a write-what-where condition caused by improper input validation. An attacker who has already obtained System-level privilege can leverage this flaw to escalate further, potentially compromising the trusted memory environment. No public exploit code has been identified and EPSS places exploitation probability at 0.14% (4th percentile), indicating this is currently a low-exploitation-pressure issue despite its local privilege escalation potential.

CVE-2026-47473 Jul 14, 20:03 HIGH This Week

Memory corruption in NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM allows an attacker with local access to trigger a write-what-where primitive (CWE-123), enabling arbitrary memory writes that can corrupt data, crash the inference service, or leak sensitive information. The flaw carries a CVSS 7.4 (High) score with a local attack vector and high attack complexity, and affects the TensorRT-LLM library used to build and serve optimized large-language-model inference on NVIDIA GPUs. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.

CVE-2026-30121 Jun 15, 00:00 npm CRITICAL POC PATCH GHSA Act Now

Arbitrary file write in remotion-dev Remotion v4.0.409 allows remote attackers to write attacker-controlled content to arbitrary filesystem locations without authentication, per the CVSS:3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) and CWE-123 (Write-what-where) classification. Remotion is a React-based programmatic video rendering framework, and the flaw can lead to integrity and availability compromise of the host running the rendering engine. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the EPSS score of 0.15% (4th percentile) indicates low predicted exploitation likelihood despite the high CVSS score.

CVE-2026-45257 Jun 10, 21:02 HIGH This Week

Page-cache corruption in FreeBSD's kTLS-RX subsystem (CVE-2026-45257 / FreeBSD-SA-26:26.kTLS) enables an unprivileged local user to overwrite arbitrary bytes in the backing physical page of any world-readable file, including SUID-root binaries, by exploiting in-place AES-GCM decryption running directly over sendfile(2)-produced EXTPG mbufs via the kernel direct map (DMAP). The write bypasses the VFS layer entirely, defeating file permissions, mount options, and chflags schg immutable flags - making this the FreeBSD functional equivalent of Linux CVE-2022-0847 (Dirty Pipe). A public exploit (bumsrakete.c) is included in the oss-security disclosure and achieves reliable root LPE in approximately 1.5 seconds on default FreeBSD 13.0 through 15.0 on amd64, arm64, and riscv; no public KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.

Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's Generic Receive Offload (GRO) networking path allows local attackers to corrupt kernel memory and potentially achieve privilege escalation or denial of service. The flaw stems from skb_gro_receive() merging fragment lists between socket buffers without honoring the SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS zero-copy flag, leaving page refcounts inconsistent. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS exploitation probability is very low at 0.02% (5th percentile).

CVE-2026-46300 May 13, 12:00 HIGH POC PATCH CISA NEWS Act Now

Local privilege escalation in Linux kernel XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem (Fragnesia vulnerability) allows authenticated local attackers to overwrite kernel memory structures by exploiting arbitrary byte writes into the kernel page cache of read-only files. CVSS score of 7.8 reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Low attack complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction requirement (UI:N) make this exploitable by any local user with basic privileges. No confirmed active exploitation (not in CISA KEV) or public proof-of-concept identified at time of analysis, but the specific vulnerability name 'Fragnesia' suggests coordinated disclosure with security research community.

Local privilege escalation in Acronis DeviceLock DLP (Windows, builds before 9.0.93212) and Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Agent (Windows, builds before 42183) allows a low-privileged local user to escalate to full system control through improper input validation. Classified as CWE-123 (write-what-where condition), successful exploitation yields total compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.01%), but the SSVC technical impact is rated total.

Stack memory write protection bypass in Semtech LoRa LR11xx transceiver firmware allows physical attackers with SPI interface access to overwrite the program call stack and achieve limited arbitrary code execution during an active session. The vulnerability affects LR1110, LR1120, and LR1121 devices running early firmware versions; however, impact is constrained to the current attack session because secure boot prevents persistent firmware modification, cryptographic keys remain isolated, and all changes revert upon device reboot or loss of physical access. CVSS 5.4 (moderate) reflects the physical attack requirement despite high confidentiality and integrity impact.
