CVE-2026-80757: selinux: reject a class permission count below its inherited common
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.16% (FIRST EPSS).
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 1b995966c3ae5244751bdaee9bfe7e17567d4fbe, 2002ff745db64ac83ee1bb9ff78196d2d68bfdb3, 2b7ffd7921fcbfe408fb7b372e47454e45b1e6a7; azl3 kernel 6.6.152.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.157.1-1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 1b995966c3ae5244751bdaee9bfe7e17567d4fbe, 2002ff745db64ac83ee1bb9ff78196d2d68bfdb3, 2b7ffd7921fcbfe408fb7b372e47454e45b1e6a7; azl3 kernel 6.6.152.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.157.1-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: selinux: reject a class permission count below its inherited common security_get_permissions() maps an inherited common's permissions into an array sized by the class's own permissions.nprim, but class_read() takes that nprim verbatim from the policy image and never checks that it covers the common. A class that inherits a common of N permissions while declaring a smaller nprim is accepted, and on load the common's permissions are written past the class-sized array -- an out-of-bounds heap write. Reject a class whose permission count is below its inherited common's. Well-formed policies, where the class count already includes the inherited permissions, are unaffected.

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.
Timeline
From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.
No dated events beyond publication.
FIRST EPSS daily score; only changes of 0.01 or more are recorded (step chart).
Patch and commit links
Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No credits in the CNA record.
Variant candidates
Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.
No nightly-computed relations.
Chain candidates
An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
