DescriptionNVD

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem. This vulnerability, known as Fragnesia, allows a local attacker to achieve arbitrary byte writes into the kernel page cache of read-only files, enabling local privilege escalation through kernel structure overwriting.

AnalysisAI

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. …

Sign in for full analysis, threat intelligence, and remediation guidance.

RemediationAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all Linux systems running XFRM-enabled kernels (check: cat /boot/config-* | grep CONFIG_XFRM) and document current kernel versions. Within 7 days: Implement access controls restricting local user privileges where operationally feasible; prioritize systems handling sensitive data or critical functions. …
