CVE-2026-49413: Flaw in Linuxulator execution of setugid binaries
- Severity: high (CVSS 7.1 v3.1)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 0.1% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- Public exploit or detection template: none known
- Published: 2026-06-27 · updated 2026-07-01
- Weakness: CWE-266
Description
The Linuxulator determined whether a binary was set-user-ID or set-group-ID by checking the P_SUGID process flag. During execve(2), this flag is not yet set at the point where the auxiliary vector is constructed, so AT_SECURE was incorrectly set to zero for set-user-ID and set-group-ID executables. An unprivileged local user can inject a shared library via LD_PRELOAD into a set-user-ID or set-group-ID Linux binary, gaining the privileges of that binary.
Affected products
- FreeBSD: 14.3, 14.3-p1, 14.3-p10, 14.3-p11, 14.3-p12, 14.3-p13 (+25)
