Linux kernel (Raspberry Pi) vulnerabilities

Summary

It was discovered that the Linux kernel algif_aead module did not properly handle in-place cryptographic operations. This flaw is known as Copy Fail. A local attacker could use this to escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-31431) It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly handle shared page fragments during socket buffer operations, collectively known as Dirty Frag. A logic flaw existed in the XFRM ESP-in-TCP subsystem and in the RxRPC networking subsystem when processing paged fragments. A local attacker could use this to escalate privileges, or possibly escape a container. (CVE-2026-43284, CVE-2026-43500) 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: - Cryptographic API; - Network drivers; - NVME drivers; - IPv4 networking; - Packet sockets; - RDS protocol; - TLS protocol; (CVE-2024-50304, CVE-2026-23112, CVE-2026-23209, CVE-2026-31504, CVE-2026-31533, CVE-2026-43033, CVE-2026-43077, CVE-2026-43078, CVE-2026-43494, CVE-2026-46028) Affected Ubuntu releases: 20.04, 18.04.
