In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due to unexpected role
Commit 0cb2af2ea66ad ("KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due
to unexpected GFN") fixed a shadow paging mismatch between stored and
computed GFNs; the bug could be triggered by changing a PDE mapping from
outside the guest, and then deleting a memslot. The rmap_remove()
call would miss entries created after the PDE change because the GFN
of the leaf SPTE does not match the GFN of the struct kvm_mmu_page.
A similar hole however remains if the modified PDE points to a non-leaf
page. In this case the gfn can be made to match, but the role does not
match: the original large 2MB page creates a kvm_mmu_page with direct=1,
while the new 4KB needs a kvm_mmu_page with direct=0. However,
kvm_mmu_get_child_sp() does not compare the role, and therefore reuses
the page.
The next step is installing a leaf (4KB) SPTE on the new path which
records an rmap entry under the gfn resolved by the walk. But when
that child is zapped its parent kvm_mmu_page has direct=1 and
kvm_mmu_page_get_gfn() computes the gfn for the 4KB page as
sp->gfn + index instead of using sp->shadowed_translation[] (or sp->gfns[]
in older kernels). It therefore fails to remove the recorded entry.
When the memslot is dropped the shadow page is freed but the rmap
entry survives, as in the scenario that was already fixed. Code that
later walks that gfn (dirty logging, MMU notifier invalidation, and
so on) dereferences an sptep that lies in the freed page, causing the
use-after-free.

CVE-2026-53359 VMs won't contain cyber-capable agents
As part of Patch the Planet , we received preview access to GPT 5.6-Cyber with a simple task: evaluate its cyber capabilities. Recent events inspired me to give it a challenge to work through: escape the VM I’d normally use for sandboxing. The target was a QEMU/KVM VM on my Linux dev machine (Debian Linux 12, AMD Zen3). It escaped the VM three different times.
First, it used recently disclosed bugs in my host kernel. When I fully updated, it used disclosed bugs that had not yet reached package maintainers or were not classified as security bugs. When I rebuilt QEMU and dependencies from the latest upstream source, it found several 0-days. It operated autonomously for hours, backtracked from approaches that didn’t work, pulled code and research papers, wrote oracles, made its own minimal e

## New Zapscape KVM Flaw Could Let Privileged L1 Guest Code Escape to Linux Hosts
Zapscape , a new Linux kernel vulnerability, could allow an attacker with kernel privileges inside an L1 guest virtual machine (VM) to escape KVM isolation and execute code on the host. The risk applies when nested virtualization is exposed to untrusted guests.
The flaw is tracked as CVE-2026-64561 and affects KVM/x86's shadow memory management unit (MMU), which manages shadow page tables used for nested guest memory translation.
Security researcher Hyunwoo Kim, who disclosed the bug, said the demonstrated exploit path can run commands on the hos

## ⚡ Weekly Recap: ShareFile Threat, Citrix Bleed 2 Ransomware, AI Coding Attacks, and More
Somewhere right now, a security tool is quietly finding bugs faster than any human can fix them. That's supposed to be the good news. The catch is that the attackers have the same tools, pointed the other way, and they don't file tickets.
That's the shape of this week. Trusted code turns on the people who installed it. Old bugs from last year are still landing because the fix sat in a queue too long. Fake installers, poisoned packages, systems left facing the open internet, and helpful little AI assistants running instructions that were

## 16-Year-Old Linux KVM Flaw Lets Guest VMs Escape to Host on Intel and AMD x86 Systems
A use-after-free bug in Linux's KVM hypervisor can be triggered from a guest virtual machine to corrupt the shadow-page state of the host kernel that runs it.
Dubbed ' Januscape ' and tracked as CVE-2026-53359 , the flaw sits in the shadow MMU code that KVM shares across both Intel and AMD. The public proof-of-concept panics the host; the researcher claims that a separate, unreleased exploit turns the same bug into full host code execution.
Security researcher Hyunwoo Kim (@v4bel) found and reported the bug. He described Januscape as the f

CVE-2026-53359 [HIGH] CVE-2026-53359 kernel: KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due to unexpected role
CVE-2026-53359 kernel: KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due to unexpected role
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due to unexpected role
Commit 0cb2af2ea66ad ("KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due
to unexpected GFN") fixed a shadow paging mismatch between stored and
computed GFNs; the bug could be triggered by changing a PDE mapping from
outside the guest, and then deleting a memslot. The rmap_remove()
call would miss entries created after the PDE change because the GFN
of the leaf SPTE does not match the GFN of the struct kvm_mmu_page.
A similar hole however remains if the modified PDE points to a non-leaf
page. In this case the gfn can be made to match, but the role does not
match: the ori
