CVE-2026-89775: Linux KVM ARM64 Guest-Escape via Use-After-Free
- Engineer — Act: A public PoC on GitHub for a guest-to-host escape on ARM64 KVM hosts with nested virtualization enabled demands immediate attention: patch the Linux kernel to the fixed version and, where nested virtualization is not required, disable it now to remove the attack surface.
- SOC/IR — Learn: No active exploitation is reported and EPSS is effectively zero, so there is no detection action to take today; however, understanding the KVM guest-escape technique is worth filing for future hunt hypothesis development should exploitation emerge.
