Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 9 Jul 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 3 Nov 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

A security update fixing these vulnerabilities is available in linux-raspi version 6.8.0-1060.64. Users should update their systems to this version or later and reboot to apply the fixes. Due to an ABI change, all third-party kernel modules must be recompiled and reinstalled after the update. Follow the official Ubuntu advisory USN-8492-4 for detailed update instructions.

Description

Multiple security vulnerabilities were discovered in the Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi systems affecting a wide range of subsystems and architectures. These issues could potentially allow an attacker to compromise the system. The affected subsystems include CPU architectures (ARM64, MIPS, PowerPC, x86), device drivers, filesystems, networking components, and various kernel frameworks. A security update addressing these flaws has been released and is available for installation.

Impact

An attacker could potentially exploit these vulnerabilities to compromise the affected Linux kernel system on Raspberry Pi devices. The broad range of affected subsystems indicates possible impacts on system stability, security, and confidentiality. However, no specific exploitation in the wild has been reported. The update fixes multiple flaws that could otherwise be leveraged for unauthorized access or privilege escalation.
