ESET Endpoint Antivirus for Linux, published on 16 Jul 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-6424 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: ESET, spol. s.r.o. ESET Endpoint Antivirus for Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6424/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6424/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-6424","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6424/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-6424","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g4c4-fjm7-hv64"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux security software","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An attacker can trigger a kernel panic in ESET Linux security products via a use-after-free vulnerability, causing system denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ESET","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"Use-after-free vulnerability in ESET Linux products potentially allowed an attacker to trigger kernel panic on the system","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Use-after-free vulnerability in ESET security products for Linux","id":"CVE-2026-6424","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Qemu-kvm: vhost inflight migration vmstate integer type mismatch causes out-of-bounds access","id":"CVE-2026-6426"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Local privilege escalation via unauthenticated ALPC in ESET Inspect Connector","id":"CVE-2026-6423"},"products":["ESET Endpoint Antivirus for Linux","ESET Server Security for Linux"],"published":"2026-07-16","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-16","vendors":["ESET, spol. s.r.o."]},"summary":"An attacker can trigger a kernel panic in ESET Linux security products via a use-after-free vulnerability, causing system denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6424/"}
