CVE-2026-45932 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix tcx/netkit detach permissions when prog fd isn't given This commit fixes a security issue where BPF_PROG_DETACH on tcx or netkit devices could be executed by any user when no program fd was provided, bypassing permission checks. The fix adds a capability check for CAP_NET_ADMIN or CAP_SYS_ADMIN in this case.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's handling of BPF program detachment on TCX and Netkit devices has been addressed. Previously, any user could execute BPF_PROG_DETACH without a specified program file descriptor, bypassing essential permission checks. This issue has been corrected by introducing a capability requirement, ensuring that only users with CAP_NET_ADMIN or CAP_SYS_ADMIN can perform the operation when no program file descriptor is provided.
