In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ptrace: slightly saner 'get_dumpable()' logic The 'dumpability' of a task is fundamentally about the memory image of the task - the concept comes from whether it can core dump or not - and makes no sense when you don't have an associated mm. And almost all users do in fact use it only for the case where the task has a mm pointer. But we have one odd special case: ptrace_may_access() uses 'dumpable' to check various other things entirely independently of the MM (typically explicitly using flags like PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS). Including for threads that no longer have a VM (and maybe never did, like most kernel threads). It's not what this flag was designed for, but it is what it is. The ptrace code does check that the uid/gid matches, so you do have to be uid-0 to see kernel thread details, but this means that the traditional "drop capabilities" model doesn't make any difference for this all. Make it all make a *bit* more sense by saying that if you don't have a MM pointer, we'll use a cached "last dumpability" flag if the thread ever had a MM (it will be zero for kernel threads since it is never set), and require a proper CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability to override.

  • WorkaroundLinux for B&Rabb_psirt

    Security researchers have identified and validated the following workarounds to reduce exposure to the vulnerabilities described in this advisory. These measures do not remediate the underlying vulnerabilities but effectively block known attack vectors until patched software versions are deployed. Important: Customers are advised to thoroughly test their systems after applying any of the listed workarounds. B&R has no visibility into customer-specific applications running on the underlying Linux system. It is the customer's responsibility to assess whether the applied workarounds interfere with existing application workloads prior to deployment in production environments. For Debian-based systems within an active support lifecycle, kernel patches addressing CVE-2026-31431 are already available via the official package repositories. Customers are strongly encouraged to apply these updates immediately by executing the following command: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade A system reboot is required after the upgrade for the updated kernel to take effect. Temporary Mitigation: If an immediate system update is not feasible, the affected kernel module (algif_aead) can be disabled persistently. Security researchers have confirmed this measure effectively prevents exploitation of CVE-2026-31431. Execute the following commands as root: echo "install algif_aead /bin/false" > /etc/modprobe.d/disable-algif.conf rmmod algif_aead 2>/dev/null || true Impact assessment: Disabling the algif_aead module removes the AEAD socket interface from the kernel cryp-to API. This does not affect dm-crypt/LUKS, kTLS, IPsec/XFRM, OpenSSL, GnuTLS, NSS, or SSH. Applications explicitly configured to use the afalg engine or that directly bind aead, skcipher, or hash sockets via AF_ALG may be affected. To assess exposure prior to applying this workaround, run: lsof | grep AF_ALG
