In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg
Issuing two writes to the same af_alg socket is bogus as the
data will be interleaved in an unpredictable fashion. Furthermore,
concurrent writes may create inconsistencies in the internal
socket state.
Disallow this by adding a new ctx->write field that indiciates
exclusive ownership for writing.

CVE-2025-39964 [MEDIUM] CWE-362 Linux Kernel Race Condition Vulnerability
Vulnerability: Linux Kernel Race Condition Vulnerability
Affected: Linux Kernel
Linux Kernel contains a race condition vulnerability which allows concurrent writes to the same AF_ALG socket causing data to be unpredictably interleaved and creating inconsistencies in the socket's internal state.
Required Action: Apply mitigations in accordance with vendor instructions, ensuring compliance with CISA’s BOD 26-04 Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk (see URL in Notes) guidance and CISA’s “Forensics Triage Requirements” (see URL in Notes). Follow applicable BOD 26-04 guidance for cloud services or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Stakeholders are responsible for evaluating each asset's internet exposure and ensuring adherence to BOD 26-04 patching guidelin

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg
Issuing two writes to the same af_alg socket is bogus as the
data will be interleaved in an unpredictable fashion. Furthermore,
concurrent writes may create inconsistencies in the internal
socket state.
Disallow this by adding a new ctx->write field that indiciates
exclusive ownership for writing.
A race condition was found in the Linux kernel cryptographic user API, AF_ALG in the way concurrent writes to the same AF_ALG socket are handled. Interleaved data and inconsistent internal socket state may result.

CVE-2025-39964 [MEDIUM] CWE-362 Linux Kernel Race Condition Vulnerability
Linux Kernel Race Condition Vulnerability
Linux Kernel contains a race condition vulnerability which allows concurrent writes to the same AF_ALG socket causing data to be unpredictably interleaved and creating inconsistencies in the socket's internal state.
Affected: Linux Kernel
Required Action: Apply mitigations in accordance with vendor instructions, ensuring compliance with CISA’s BOD 26-04 Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk (see URL in Notes) guidance and CISA’s “Forensics Triage Requirements” (see URL in Notes). Follow applicable BOD 26-04 guidance for cloud services or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Stakeholders are responsible for evaluating each asset's internet exposure and ensuring adherence to BOD 26-04 patching guidelines.

## Executive Summary
CISA added three actively exploited Linux kernel vulnerabilities: CVE-2025-39682, CVE-2026-53266, and CVE-2025-39964 to its KEV Catalog on September 18, 2026, triggering a 3-day remediation deadline that passed on September 21. Under CISA BOD 26-04, a 3-day window applies to CVE-2025-39682 across all assets, and for the other two, the deadline is 3 days for publicly exposed assets and 14 days for internal assets. With the September 21 deadline now passed, affected systems should be patched immediately. Qualys TruRisk Eliminate identifies affected assets with vulnerability context a

## CISA Flags Three Linux Kernel Vulnerabilities Exploited in the Wild
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Friday added three security flaws impacting the Linux kernel to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities ( KEV ) catalog, citing evidence of active exploitation.
The vulnerabilities are listed below -
CVE-2025-39682 (CVSS score: 9.8) - An improper check for unusual or exceptional conditions vulnerability in the TLS receive path that could allow local authenticated users to trigger memory disclosure or denial-of-service (DoS).
CVE-2026-53266 (CVSS score: 8.8) - An out-of-bounds write vulnerabili

CVE-2025-39964 kernel: crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg

CVE-2025-39964 [LOW] CVE-2025-39964 kernel: crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg
CVE-2025-39964 kernel: crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af_alg - Disallow concurrent writes in af_alg_sendmsg
Issuing two writes to the same af_alg socket is bogus as the
data will be interleaved in an unpredictable fashion. Furthermore,
concurrent writes may create inconsistencies in the internal
socket state.
Disallow this by adding a new ctx->write field that indiciates
exclusive ownership for writing.
