Dirty Frag was described as an unpatched Linux kernel LPE that can give an unprivileged local user root on most Linux distributions by chaining xfrm-ESP Page-Cache Write and RxRPC Page-Cache Write, while the related Copy Fail issue was reported to Linux kernel maintainers on April 30, 2026 and has come under active exploitation in the wild. CloudLinx said the flaw sits in the ESP-in-UDP MSG_SPLICE_PAGES no-COW fast path reachable via the XFRM user netlink interface, and the researcher said Dirty Frag can be triggered regardless of whether the algif_aead module is available; a working PoC was also released.

Cline Kanban server critical WebSocket flaw disclosed
Initial DisclosureResearchers at Oasis Security disclosed a critical vulnerability in the Cline Kanban server on May 7, 2026. The flaw affects Kanban npm package version 0.1.59 and stems from missing origin validation and authentication on three WebSocket endpoints exposed by the local server on port 3484. A webpage visited by a developer while Cline is running can silently exfiltrate workspace data, inject commands into the AI agent terminal, or end active sessions; updating Cline to version 0.1.66 closes the exposure.
