This means one can use SEAL_EXEC to apply\nSEAL_WRITE while having writeable mappings.\n\nThis breaks the contract that SEAL_WRITE provides and can be used by an\nattacker to pass a memfd that appears to be write sealed but can still be\nmodified arbitrarily.\n\nFix this by adding the implied seals before the call for\nmapping_deny_writable() is done."}], "lastModified": "2026-10-28T18:09:02.160", "configurations": [{"nodes": [{"negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "40AC3123-FD85-4602-A174-1E62052982CC", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.143", "versionStartIncluding": "6.3"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "1E73413E-0629-41AA-A4D3-5A3D10A0BD63", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.93", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "0FCCB23A-7629-4386-93B6-B119237C4382", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.35", "versionStartIncluding": "6.13"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "9161A938-0FA8-44BC-95FE-C5A271601AB3", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.12", "versionStartIncluding": "6.19"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc1:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "B1EF7059-E670-45F4-B422-54C40FA86390"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc2:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "0D38F0BF-A728-4133-A358-D44A2F7EE6D6"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc3:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "EC732D08-5F7B-46D9-B154-E60C7F4F0A97"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc4:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "E5910A9D-F60A-409A-B486-FE66BFEBA9B9"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc5:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "81DFF19E-9CF8-49C6-8C36-1E4038622933"}], "operator": "OR"}]}], "sourceIdentifier": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67"}
