Fediverse
The CopyFail announcement and handling is one of the least defender-supporting I think I've ever seen.
Mitigations were extremely thin at launch, and haven't improved much, and are even brittle and misleading:
https://infosec.exchange/@tychotithonus/116490466168316767
They've also largely neglected most of the value of the feedback they're getting from defenders clamoring for useful intel. The GitHub repo is full of feedback about which distros are affected or unaffected ... and a day later, none of it has been used to update the list of affected versions in the main README (except for the RHEL made-up version fix)
And this exchange is painful:
https://github.com/theori-io/copy-fail-CVE-2026-31431/issues/12
"None of us are RH people so it wasn't caught" 😐 You had weeks do basic vetting, or find someone who would help you.
Theori seems to have to have intended this to be a showcase for their product. Instead, it has convinced me that I will never buy anything from them.
Edit: Will Dorman goes into more detail here, 100% agreed:
https://infosec.exchange/@wdormann/116493725294723695
Si sois sysadmins de Linux mejor no hagáis planes para el puente... https://copy.fail/
Mitigation to #CVE_2026_31431 / #copyfail :
- If kernel config has CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_AEAD=m:
echo "install algif_aead /bin/false" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/disable-algif.conf; sudo rmmod algif_aead
- If kernel config has CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_AEAD=y:
Add "initcall_blacklist=algif_aead_init" to the kernel command line and reboot.
The CopyFail folks shouldn't have routed stderr to /dev/null in their workaround guidance. For some platforms, where it's not a module ... that mitigation is a no-op:
$ rmmod algif_aead
rmmod: ERROR: Module algif_aead is builtin.
So if there's no kernel patch available yet, you can't use that workaround. Instead, use AppArmor / seccomp / SELinux to block unprivileged AF_ALG socket creation if you can (but don't just turn these hardening layers up if they''re not already in place - they can be tricky)
Copy Fail (CVE-2026-31431) is a Linux kernel vulnerability that allows local unprivileged users to gain root access on affected systems.

I can confirm this report where Copyfail fails.
https://github.com/theori-io/copy-fail-CVE-2026-31431/issues/19
this fixed it for me:
cat >/etc/modprobe.d/disable-algif-aead.conf <<'EOF'
install algif_aead /bin/false
blacklist algif_aead
EOF
depmod -a
rmmod algif_aead
i tested with this: https://github.com/rootsecdev/cve_2026_31431
Copy Fail (CVE-2026-31431) has just been patched on Debian 13, with kernel version 6.12.85-1 from trixie (security).
As people rightly highlight that the #CopyFail fix status in various #Linux distros is… confusing, it’s worth keeping in mind you can deploy the workaround everywhere with no side effects:
# echo "install algif_aead /bin/false" > /etc/modprobe.d/disable-algif.conf
# rmmod algif_aead 2>/dev/null || true
By ‘confusing’ I mean:
- after reading #Ubuntu https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-31431 I have no idea whether my specific distro is vulnerable or not (WTF are these
linux-hwecode names, mylsb_releasejust saysUbuntu) - Amazon Linux is at least quite open about ‘fix pending’ https://explore.alas.aws.amazon.com/CVE-2026-31431.html

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Viss/116490543256385246
From my reading, this is my understanding as well. You don't have to have root, and you can modify anything in the page cache. Like ... sshd, or libpam, or anything called by a cron job that's running as root.
How can we definitively confirm this?

Copy Fail (https://copy.fail/, CVE-2026-31431) is a good reminder why I don’t want to run CI jobs only in containers.
It would be great to get some momentum to https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/forgejo-actions-feature-requests/issues/4 (microVMs for forgejo actions). At least on bare metal (or nested VMs with nested KVM) this would make things a lot safer. It would also simplify the usage of containers/docker in CI jobs without compromising security, which is kind of a pain with Codeberg Action currently.
Yet another nasty #Linux root access vulnerability (local, not remote)

So, copy.fail was found with one hour of AI assistance, and would (according to this article) have earned $500K on the open market not too long ago.
https://www.bugcrowd.com/blog/what-we-know-about-copy-fail-cve-2026-31431/
I'm no security researcher, but this kind of contradicts all those people who said that the OpenBSD bug that Mythos found (for $20K of compute) was just fancy fuzzing, and the only reason it was there was that nobody was investing 20K in OpenBSD security and the security threat of modern AI was all hype.
Good explanation [1] including "For immediate mitigation" (consistent with most other descriptions on how to immediately prevent the exploit while waiting for your distribution to fix it properly).

@maddiefuzz Yes it is https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-31431 but that's ok, vulnerabilities happen :).
The toot was more about the calm and demure aspect of admin-ing a Debian and using it for development. I've found it tends to pay off to learn a distro and stick with it 🤓. Debian as a desktop/dev environment is also a fantastic option
The https://copy.fail/ website for the Linux CVE CVE-2026-31431 reeks of AI and is absolutely distasteful with its boasting about the severity and explainers that have no clear target audience

linux kernel question regarding #copyfail CVE-2026-31431 I just tested a c version of the exploit (https://github.com/tgies/copy-fail-c) on a riscv64 linux 5.10.4 (milkv-duo) and get
```

I tested it on another risc64 SBC with a newer kernel which gained root but it seems like the exploit doesn't work on this kernel.

Xint Code disclosed CopyFail (CVE-2026-31431) Wednesday. A logic bug in algif_aead, the kernel's crypto socket layer, from a 2017 in-place optimization. Nine years on every major Linux distribution. The exploit is 732 bytes of Python. No offsets, no race window. Static analysis missed it. Fuzzing missed it. AI-assisted review caught it. Rust would not have, this is logic, not memory. The Rust-versus-C debate distracted from where logic bugs actually live.
@mntmn looks like there’s an aarch64 port https://github.com/theori-io/copy-fail-CVE-2026-31431/pull/25

So... dealing with CVE-2026-31431 and I'm annoyed:
- I see vulnerable kernel versions in Debian, but MY kernel (as "uname -sr" tells me) is different
- yet my kernel on the system I tested was clearly faulty, as the exploit worked (and then didn't work when I employed the workaround)
So I need this workaround at least for now until a new kernel comes out (and I probably still won't let algif_aead insert after that anyway)

An authentication bypass security issue has been identified in the cPanel software (including DNSOnly) affecting all versions after 11.40.
This one is ugly, folks. Go update your servers now, and run the detection script.
🚨 CRITICAL auth bypass in cPanel & WHM (CVE-2026-41940, CVSS 9.3) lets unauthenticated attackers access the control panel. Patch not confirmed — restrict interface to trusted IPs & monitor advisories. https://radar.offseq.com/threat/cve-2026-41940-cwe-306-missing-authentication-for--3aceec8f #OffSeq #cPanel #Vulnerability #Infosec
After the last bit of #cPanel news, I checked my own shared #WebHosting account to find that they have indeed followed the recommendations offered for a temporary fix and disabled all the admin port numbers for the console.
No sites are down, and email is working as expected... so it's just a matter of waiting for all of the fixes to roll out.
If you're a cPanel user and haven't yet checked accessibility and whether you've been upgraded, you might want to take a look.
cPanel shipped an emergency patch Tuesday for CVE-2026-41940 (CVSS 9.8) with active exploitation. Watchtowr posted a working proof-of-concept Wednesday. cpsrvd writes the session file to disk before checking the password. Inject CRLF bytes through the auth header, unsanitized data lands inside, user=root sticks, login proceeds as admin. Pre-auth file writes that store attacker data are a recurring pattern across hosting panels, not an edge case.
En las últimas 24 horas se han detectado vulnerabilidades críticas que afectan sistemas Linux, cPanel, routers de Solana y Adobe Acrobat, exponiendo a usuarios a escalada de privilegios, suplantación de autenticación, robo de tokens y ejecución remota de código; además, se reportan fallos en Cloudflare y un malware avanzado que amenaza sectores científicos. Descubre estos y más detalles en el siguiente listado de noticias sobre seguridad informática:
