DescriptionCVE.org

Missing privilege verification in the secure context cleanup handler in FreeRTOS-Kernel before 11.3.1 might allow local users to cause a use-after-free condition in secure-world memory via the SVC handler for secure context deallocation.

To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 11.3.1 or later.

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in FreeRTOS-Kernel's secure context cleanup handler (versions 10.2.0 through 11.3.0) allows a local low-privileged user to corrupt or crash TrustZone secure-world memory by invoking the SVC handler for secure context deallocation without privilege verification. The missing privilege check permits normal-world code to trigger deallocation of already-freed secure-world memory regions, producing high integrity and availability impact on the secure execution environment - a severe outcome in security-sensitive embedded deployments. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires local code execution on the target device with at minimum low-privilege process access in the normal world (PR:L per the CVSS 4.0 vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.3 reflects a locally-constrained but high-impact vulnerability. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A local low-privileged process on a TrustZone-enabled embedded device running FreeRTOS-Kernel 10.2.0-11.3.0 directly invokes the SVC handler for secure context deallocation without holding the required privilege or owning the target context. Because the cleanup handler does not verify the caller's privilege, it proceeds with deallocation of a secure-world memory region, creating a use-after-free condition that corrupts secure-world data structures. …
Remediation Upgrade to FreeRTOS-Kernel V11.3.1 or later, as confirmed by the vendor patch at https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS-Kernel/releases/tag/V11.3.1 and the Amazon security bulletin at https://aws.amazon.com/security/security-bulletins/2026-086-aws/. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all systems running FreeRTOS-Kernel versions 10.2.0 through 11.3.0 and assess exposure in your embedded and IoT device inventory. …
